If you listen to the audio logs and read other "side" material in your PDA as you progress through the game you will know the Captain of the Aurora aimed to set it down near an apparent land mass. The landing one one of the few exposed land masses on the water planet wasn't just "random luck". Look under "Aurora Surviors"  "Lifepod 19 Second Officer Keen's Voicelog" - Tells most of the story as to why it's not "random luck".
