## Editorial
Agence Spatiale Algerienne (ASAL) is Algeria's national space agency and an active Earth observation mission operator.[^asal-alsat1b] Its record is centred on the AlSat series rather than a single current flagship. AlSat-1 operated from 2002 to 2010 as an 88 kg Disaster Monitoring Constellation satellite with 32 m three-band imaging and a 600 km swath.[^sstl-alsat1] AlSat-2A carries NAOMI imaging at 2.5 m panchromatic and 10 m multispectral resolution over a 17.5 km swath, while AlSat-2B launched on 26 September 2016 with the same panchromatic and multispectral imaging class.[^asal-alsat2a][^airbus-alsat2b] AlSat-1B, launched the same day, is a 103 kg imaging mission with 12 m panchromatic and 24 m multispectral products.[^asal-alsat1b]
