English: The active support system for the SOAR primary mirror is ready, and awaits the completed mirror. One hundred and twenty electromechanical force-feedback actuators support the 4.3 meter diameter, 10 centimeter thin, ULE glass face sheet, and control the correct surface figure as the telescope points around the sky.
