- Dr Rich Roberts who tweeted that the drone sightings  could  be UFO's was  asked Can you post the torah source for other life other then earthlings?
He responded  on Twitter:  I was told that Rav Aryeh Kaplan said that the Zohar interprets the seven levels, separated by the firmaments, as other worlds with intelligent life. I am not qualified to go further in this discussion. A Talmid Chochem, who is a well known author of Torah seforim, told this to me. I am not a Talmid Chochum. I might have even reported this to you slightly incorrectly.
The other point that I would make is that all knowledge is in the Torah but that doesn't mean that anyone alive has all of that knowledge.
Here is what he told me:
"Rav Chasdai Crescas of Spain (1340-1411) writes that nothing in the Torah negates the possibility of believing in extraterrestrial life. "

Rabb Aryeh Kaplan argues that the basic premise of the existence of extraterrestrial life is strongly supported by the Zohar, Judaism chief mystical work. He writes, “The Midrash teaches us that there are seven earths. Although the Ibn Ezra tries to argue that these refer to the seven continents, the Zohar clearly states that the seven are separated by a firmament and are inhabited. Although they are not inhabited by man, they are the domain of intelligent creatures.”Please don't bother asking me more about this since it is beyond my level of expertise.,Dr Roberts concluded.

  4. Dr. Roberts, What if the Aliens aren't vaccinated๐Ÿ˜ฑ?

  5. It won't save any money for anyone. Townships will now have to hire more inspectors to do less work since They must meet a specific schedule the work load must be less.
    So the township will either pay for it with tax dollars or charge more for inspections.

    1. I found that really funny.
      A drone is only operated like that if they are looking for something.
      What are they looking for? He has no idea. It could be someone lost his Chanukah sand timer and needs it next week. Maybe someone misplaced their glasses, cellphone, car keys, or four-year-old child. But his mind jumped to nuclear weapons. Why not? It is as good a guess as any.
