So, me and the boys have decided to take a trip down to Earth for reasons that matter not be it science, leisure or fleeing persecution. It is no concern how we blend in but our spacecraft poses an issue.

How can we enter Earth's atmosphere without drawing attention to ourselves and then land?

Also, I would like to make it clear my question differs from this one as this question is about entering a planet specifically Earth and not about space travel, and also preferably no sci-fi invisibility.

The spacecraft in question, primarily uses Ion Thrusters although it would be permissible to have some additional propulsion method for planetary entry, the craft needs to carry six human sized passengers and the main propulsion is used for long distance journeys and as such the craft is not the most manoeuvrable using its main propulsion.
