Issue building docker container on M1

[camfairchild]

I keep coming across an error building the dockerfile on an M1 Pro.
This was due to not being able to install chromium for arm64.

I was able to fix it using

diff --git a/explorer-ui/Dockerfile b/explorer-ui/Dockerfile
index 4a5c777..29afd6b 100644
