This is the cbs evening news with scott pelley. Pelley good evening. The target is two miles wide and 300 million miles away. But today, the European Space agency landed a spacecraft on a comet, a first in human history. The lander named philae shot these pictures on approach to the comet which is called 67 p, a name as gray as the bolders and ridges that litter its service. Philae bounced once when an anchoring system failed to catch. When it settled, it began sending signals but it has not sent pictures from the surface yet. Charlie dagata is at Mission Control in germany. Reporter a decadelong dream of landing on a streaking comet came true today. applause matt taylor is with the European Space agency. We tried to land on a bleed comet thats 500 million kilometers away and we just dropped something the size of a fridge, and its going down. Its mental, its crazy that were doing this. Reporter the philae separateseparated from its unmad mothership the rosetta earlier today. The comet travels at speeds up to 84,000 miles per hour. The rosetta has been chasing it for 10 years. To catch up, it had to use the gravity of earth and mars as a slingshot, building up speed around both planet. When the philae landed today, history was made, but stephen ulemix said it looks like the philae may not have stucked to comet. Maybe today we didnt just land once. We even landed twice. laughter applause good job. Its not all so clear. Its not so easy to interpret. Reporter the philaes thruster system failed on the landing. This is an exactsized replica of the Landing Craft itself, and when they learned that the thrust system had failed, they knew it would have to rely more on ice drills on the feet to hold it in place and harpoons fired spot surface to help anchor it. As it turned out, the harpoons failed to fire, too. The landing was always a big risk. The thrusts are not working. The surface, which was a total unknown, this was a big concern. We had no control of that. Reporter the philaes mission is to test the theor they comets brought organic matter and water to earth billions of years ago. If it stays on the comet, it will start 64 hours worth of scientific observations. The European Space agency loses contact with the lander from time to time, as the comet rotates, so, scott, it wont be until tomorrow morning until Mission Control tries once again to try to contact the lander and see how well its operating. Pelley Charlie Dagata at the European Space agency Mission Control in darmstadt, germany. Charlie, thank you.

Doxypsyche lean went from six cents a pill to 3. 36 cents, an increase of more than 5,000 . Captopril, used for hypertens, increased 2800 . Dr. Jon lapook is looking into why. Reporter Barbara Heller has an auto immune disease called p. B. C. She takes a generic drug to prevent liver damage. The last refill that i got cost 94. 50 for three months.

I need that drug every day, probably for the rest of my life. Costs cant be a factor in not getting it. Reporter a recent analysis found nearly 10 of generics more than doubled in price in the past year. Todays article points to the impact of less competition in the generic drug industry. For example, over the last decade, the number of Companies Making the heart drug digoxin, fell from 8 to 3, and the drug price went up by 637 . Dr. Aaron kesselhiem of brigham and Womens Hospital is one of the authors of the paper. So wiewt competition, the Generic Companies can say, whats the price . How much you got . Yes. Everybody just assumes that generic prices are low, but generic prices are low because theres competition, and so once that competition goes away for whatever reason, then you have a very expensive generic drugs. And these can be very expensive for patients. Well, this is three months worth. Reporter after heller and her husband did Extensive Research they were able to find the drug at a discounted rate, but it was still more than three times what she had paid before. The Generic Pharmaceutical Association points out that in 2013, generics saved the Health Care System 239 billion.
