Abstract
We propose an alternative method for the alignment of a big astronomical telescope with a segment primary mirror, using the subaperture method; which calculate the parameters necessary to achieve the alignment of the subapertures of an optic surface. Some numeric simulations are presents to align the segments of a mirror.
