The Comet is the newspaper and website of the people in Stevenage, North Hertfordshire and Mid Bedfordshire.

Named as the best free newspaper in the country, The Comet has always been acclaimed for its quality journalism and integrity and often reflects the passions of the people who read it.

The Comet prides itself on reporting the news in the towns and villages where the paper circulates and is always quick to lead campaigns to help people and communities get justice.

Not only has the newspaper, which has been in existence since May 1971, been voted the best free newspaper in the UK, but remains the dominant free in the stable of Archant, one of the country's largest publishers.

A panel of national media judges recently described the Comet as: "A powerhouse of a newspaper - in the fast lane and accelerating. Clearly the newspaper in its area. The Comet has achieved good growth and has an excellent local feel."

This free weekly title has three editions - Hitchin, Letchworth & Baldock and Stevenage, with around 150,000 readers each week.

Have you ever seen this figure-8 on a globe and wondered what it is? It is simply this: if you could record the position of the sun in the sky at the same time every day, let’s say sometime around noon and subtracting one hour if you are observing daylight saving time, you would notice that the sun takes a rather strange path. You might notice that at certain times throughout the year the sun's position not only varies higher and lower (North and South) as you would expect with the change of the seasons, but also slightly east and west. This figure-8 path that the sun makes in the sky is called the analemma. On some days you might notice that the sun is not in the sky where, according to the time on your watch, you would expect it to be.
