Optical State Estimation provides a framework for both separating errors in test optics from the target system and deducing the state of multiple optics in a telescope beam train using wavefront as well as pre-test component measurements including the knowledge of their level of error. Using this framework, we investigate the feasibility of simplifying the interferometric alignment configuration of NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, a large segmented-aperture cryogenic telescope, using a single, static auto-collimating flat instead of six such flats, resulting in a reduced sub-aperture sampling.
