In memory of those fallen in the defense of Earth and her colonies.

It was said in Halo 2. And at the time, prior to the main fleet arriving, that was the only place they landed. Because they only got one ship through the orbital defenses. (Other than the ship the Chief blew up.)
In ODST, they explain that maybe 6-12 hours after the slipspace event, more ships show up and break through the orbital defenses to land and attack everywhere.
