This is one of the Exodus colony ships (emergency) landing during the collapse, with another exploding nearby.
These are the very same SIVA constructed ships that were from the Cosmodrome, and built by Rasputin. Each ship had an AI on board to control the SIVA, however each AI feared that without Rasputin, the SIVA would break free.
Many of these ships have been revealed. Exodus blue, the one stranded in the cosmodrome and used as a crucible map. Exodus Red, the one of grimiore cards, and Exodus Black whose pic was recently revealed to be crashed on the ruins of Nessus.
For more info on the Exodus Project - check out Myelin's recent lore video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRHab-e0Ep8 - It does a pretty good job explaining the ships, SIVA, and the collapse.

While I do certainly entertain the strong possibility that this is the Collapse, I think going as far as to say that it is specifically an Exodus colony ship without having any real proof would be a bit far fetched. [spoiler]and that is coming from the guy talking about future memories so...[/spoiler]

[/quote] Landing control Its obvious this is not a guy standing in a city under the traveler, but a man in a ship trying to escape. The only ships that launched WERE the Exodus colony ships, and even then some did not make it. I think its far more unlikely to assume a guy is having visions of the future when occams razor states that memories of a tragic past are far more likely. In the game, the Gunsmith recalls memories of Sleeper Simulant. Never once has an exo 'forseen' the future however. Though your interpretation is entertaining, its far from the simple truth. Memories of the collapse, burning colony ships, crashing onto an icy moon. This exo was a survivor, he did not die right away, rather encountered the Darkness shortly after landing and fought with fellow military as the corpses piled up. Its possible at this point the SIVA was under control of the Darkness, and turned on its masters. Id even wager this ship IS Exodus Black, images of which was recently leaked to be crashed and abandoned on an icy moon (either nessus or Io, to be found out later in game).

As I said, I am fine with the interpretation that the Exo is fleeing Earth during the collapse, however there is absolutely nothing in the card to imply it is an Exodus ship or that SIVA was involved. I am sure that there were more ships on Earth during the Golden Age capable of leaving orbit other than those in the Cosmodrome. [spoiler]Also that image of Exodus black is on Nessus, neither icy nor a moon[/spoiler]

There's no way it will mention Siva because the dev team hadn't come up with the idea of Siva at that point. All faith had to go out the window when they admitted they didn't know what the darkness is. The whole belief that they had all this lore already typed up is gone. If they didn't do a reveal of Siva before the grimoire came out, odds are it has nothing to do with said grimoire...
