A humidity-control system made by Tucson-based Paragon Space Development flew on the unmanned Boeing Starliner orbital flight test recently.

David Wichner An environmental control system designed and made by Tucson-based Paragon Space Development Corp. was successfully tested aboard Boeing’s unmanned Starliner crew capsule recently during its first successful docking with the International Space Station.

Boeing awarded Paragon a contract in 2015 to build the humidity control system for Starliner, which incorporates Paragon’s patented water-processing technology to provide cabin atmospheric humidity control using no moving parts, the company says. Starliner's first manned flight has been delayed due to software and hardware issues unrelated to Paragon's work.

Paragon’s humidity-control system also is being built into Northrop Grumman's Habitation and Logistics Outpost module, part of a planned NASA lunar space station.
