Now, the last we see of him in the intro is him descending onto the planet Alchera. His power armor is damaged and the oxygen is leaking. [Screen fades to black]
What happened next:
Shepard understands that he's fuсked, but remains the cool guy he's ever been. He scans the surrounding space and sees the Normandy's wreck travelling at the same velocity a couple of hundred yards away. Using the oxygel leak as a jet, he propells himself towards it. Through one of the multiple hull breaches he gets in the cargo bay where the Mako is kept. He gets in, starts her and detaches from the wreck, but not very far (in order to be more easily discovered by the rescue party). So they fall down on the planet alongside each other, the dead Normandy and Shepard in the Mako. At the right altitude Shepard fires the deceleration thrusters, but the power cells are damaged and the thrusters fail early. Mako touches down quite rough, and the life support goes out. Still the vehicle is mostly intact and Shepard is still alive. But the rescue party does not show up and Shepard slowly freezes to death. When he is already unconscious, the Blue Suns show up.
The rest you know from the Redemption comic.
And, to make it easier to believe:
In ME1 Ashley once said: "Every marine a rifleman. Every rifleman ZG-certified". And Shepard is not an ordinary marine. He is the top grade Spec Ops marine. No doubt he had received an extensive training to use weightlessness to gain every possible tactical advantage in combat. And it's highly probable that during that training exactly such "spacing" situation, as that he found himself in during the ME2 opening sequence, was simulated or even worked through live! So, all he had to do to get back to the Normandy's wreck was to remember his training.
