miserable cold. >> just a little bit of snow. >> reporter: heavy snow and strong winds pounded the mid country's section tuesday. in colorado, an invasion of arctic air sent temperatures plunging producing slick snowy roads. >> number winter is here. >> reporter: it bha to blame for this deadly crash in jefferson county. the drive e of this car died after a head-on collision with another vehicle that slid across the road in icy traffic. four people were sent to the hospital in critical condition. in colorado springs a record snow on tuesday didn't help matters. a driver lost control and went barreling through this neighborhood. >> pulled up, parked, walked up to the door, and the car came slamming through, hit the house. >> no one was seriously injured, but police say the driver acted

spacecraft in 2004. it meant using the gravity of the earth and mars as a sling shot, building up speed by swinging around both planets before swinging off toward its target. it finally caught up in the comet in august and began looking for a place to land its probe. this is exactly the size of the landing craft, and they're aiming for a flat, relatively smooth surface. when they caught up to the comet, they expect the shape of a potato. instead they found this, the shape of a rubber duck which makes it more important to find a place to land. it could veer several miles off course and land on an icy peak. jim green says some of nasa's equipmet is on board for the ride. >> it's not them versus us in

planetary science, it really isn't. >> is it not a rivalry? >> it's not. there's no rivalry like that because we want to see their program succeed because when it does, we all gain from that. >> reporter: if successful the probe will begin analyzing the stuff the comet's made of, shedding light on the formation of the solar system, the origin of water on earth. maybe even life itself. >> and you can feel the tension here as all they can do is wait. there's no knowing whether it's going to be too hard or soft for the ice drills to take hold. because it's so far away, it's completely out of their control. >> charlie, thank you. pot will arrive in myanmar this hour after striking a major deal on clie imagine change. the two countries vowed to cut greenhouse gases over the years. major garrett is in beijing where the two leaders couldn't find common ground, though, on everything.
