"The people at Bezeq and the Yehoshua Publicity Ministry simply could not believe that this was happening to them... The fact that senior astronomers in the world rushed to announce that they intended to appeal the decision caused a debate as to whether the film should be changed, but in the meantime it was decided to leave the original text intact.

On the Internet you can acquire a lot of knowledge, especially in matters related to space. This is according to a new television campaign. No, this is not a campaign for the science website. At the current rate of budgets flowing to the science website, it will take 3,000 years to finance one television broadcast - this campaign is being launched by the Bezeq company, towards the beginning of the school year to promote the marketing of home networks. Since then, Bezeq began to deploy its patronage in the field of home networks - the demand for these networks soared dramatically. From a product that until then was sold in a few hundreds of networks every month, Bezeq moved to sales of many thousands every month and in total - Bezeq has already sold more than 30,000 home networks in about six months.
In a press release, the company writes: "The current promotion is intended to give a renewed boost to the issue with the opening of the school year and the increase in demand for the Internet as a study aid. Thus - Bezeq men found themselves debating an amusing dilemma - which it is doubtful if anyone could have imagined."
"In the new film that came out yesterday, two children are filmed, one - knows the answers to every question, and the other - does not. The broadcast ends with the question "Isn't it time to connect the second computer to the Internet as well?" One of the sentences that the filmmakers put in the mouth of the 'scientist' boy is "In the solar system there is one star and nine planets..." Only these days, of course after the filming of the broadcast was finished, the dramatic announcement was made by the International Astronomical Union that the planet Pluto had lost its status as a planet and that the planet (the error in the original, in the Bezeq press release, AB) Pluto was in fact "dethroned".
"The people at Bezeq and the Yehoshua Publicity Ministry simply could not believe that this was happening to them... The fact that senior astronomers in the world rushed to announce that they intended to appeal the decision caused a debate as to whether the film should be changed, but in the meantime it was decided to leave the original text intact.
Perhaps in a flash you read the latest news, according to which a group of astronomers engaged in the study of the planets (planetary scientists) decided to convene a new conference in which researchers from other fields will not participate ("Just as planetary scientists will not determine the fate of a definition in biology," said Alan Stern, the scientist, in a conversation with the website the head of the New Horizons spacecraft project making its way to Pluto).
It's just a shame that Bezeq doesn't mention where the extensive knowledge about the solar system can be drawn from.
