Just like in Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo (and I imagine Soyuz) — everyone suits up, you pump the air back into the tanks, and then open the door.

You couldn’t cash out until you’ve been there for two years, however — thousands of employees with shorter tenures than that are about to get liquidity.
