I'd like to analyze the Story and its timeline according to the pictures and videos we have seen so far.
This is going to be pretty hard analyzing (based much more on facts than imagination)
There are 3 different kinds of suits:
Basic Suit, the blue one (just a suit)
Flamethrower Suit (F Suit)
Escape Pod Suit (EP Suit)
2 Similar vehicles, RT01 and AT02 (AT02 is never seen active, or to change position)
2 Monsters
Flying Mohawk
Pale Monster
I have arranged the pictures in a way that makes sense for the timeline (in my opininon of course):

Vehicles are on different side of the Garage, facing different direction.

Shaw(?) in normal suit(??) watching starmap

Vehicles are on same side, facing same direction. Flying Mohawk

Vehicles are on different side, facing same direction. F Suit seen.
There is very much Gravel on the ground, so I'd say this happens after the Sandstorm. It also looks like it's raining (Sprinklers or real rain?)

Vehicles are on different side, facing different direction (toolbox shows the direction of the leftside vehicle).
Gravel on the ground, so after sandstorm. Pale Monster.

Vickers entering Escape Pod, wearing EP suit. Earlier we were shown she was running and changing in a hurry.

Vickers in EP suit watching starmap
Why I put these pictures in this order?
-Gravel tells about Sandstorm
-Flying Mohawk comes before Pale Monster
(I'm pretty sure they are the same monster actually, as has been theorised before. This is because Picture 3. if you look at the Flying Mohawks suit and rip of the padding with your mind, the remaining suit will look very similar to Picture 5.s Pale Monsters suit)
-EP suit always after normal suit (and probably only after using escape pod)
There is bound to be mistakes in the way I ordered these pictures, I'm not trying to represent this as the only one.
To me it seems that EP suit is designed to be used with the escape pod. If this is true, Prometheus must survive any possible collision with SJ ship, or the other possibility: There is no collision. This is because we see Shaw driving vehicle inside garage wearing EP suit (unless she decided to do some reparking before using Escape Pod. This sound very illogical storywise if EP suit is really for Escape Pod though). It could be possible too that the 2 ships collide but neither one is destroyed and Prometheus having only minor damage.
It could also be possible that SJ ship is docked/touched down in to the temple (and Shaw gets a chance to see starmap in normal suit) but something happens and SJ ship takes off (causing the sandstorm?). Later when it falls for some reason, Vickers gets a chance to enter and see starmap room (wearing EP suit).
Note on replies:
If you talk about some certain picture, use the same names I used or if it's a picture a didnt post, give it a next available number and post it/post a link to it.
(This discussion is going to get really chaotic if everyone uses their own names for every picture, suit and vehicle)
I would like to hear your theories/Ideas about the timeline progression and the plot itself.
