摘要

In 2008, Tucson, Ariz.-based Paragon Space Development Corp. was ranked by Inc. magazine as the fastest-growing privately held aerospace engineering company in the United States.rnParagon has nearly 100 employees, up from fewer than 15 just five years ago. Sales continue to grow by around 50 percent annually, with revenue "in the double-digit millions," according to Lance Bush, a NASA veteran who joined the company in 2006 as its chief strategic officer.rnParagon was founded by Jane Poynter and Taber MacCallum, microgravity researchers who spent two years living inside Biosphere 2, a glass-enclosed ecosystem built in the Arizona desert that was designed to be self-sustaining. After rejoining the outside world in 1993, the pair married and started Paragon with the goal of becomingrnthe pre-eminent commercial provider of human spaceflight life-support systems.
