"The mirrors move in very small increments over the course of ~10 days to complete their deployment. They move approximately 1mm per day each."
"Each primary mirror segment has an ID which consists of a letter (A,B,C) followed by a number. The letter denotes one of 3 different 'prescriptions' for each group of primary mirror segments."
All Primary Mirror segments have moved 1mm except for A3 and A6.
So far actuators have moved 6.5mm. Halfway out of the stowed position.
