The drive core is "in the back"? I'm not sure this is the case. I haven't seen an overlay of the accessible internal structures of the Aurora ingame but I had the feeling the drive core is more centrally located in the wreck. The engine nacelles are indeed aft as expected, but the "core" dunno.

A drive core detonation may have caused a massive secondary explosion with whatever was in the bow. Liquid oxygen / hydrogen etc perhaps?
