Okay, friends. This is the conclusion of this series which are part one the series on UFOs, extraterrestrial beings, and space travel contemporary Halakhic analysis. Part one, we did the earliest sources of whether there are life on other planets. We saw the opinion of Rabbi Yehuda Barceloni in his commentary to the safer Hayetzira who even acknowledged the possibility that there is Torah elsewhere on the universe. We saw the opinion of Rabbi Hasdai Crescas who also acknowledged that opinion that there could be life on other planets, even intelligent life on other planets. The other view, the other extreme, the opinion of Rabbi Yosef Albo who says that no, it is impossible that there is any life on any planets. He said, "Yoreh anokhi she lo yoyrish olam acherim." There is no There are no other worlds. There There is no life. There are no They don't have free choice. And then we had the in-between view of the safer Habris who said, "While there is other life, other life does not have free choice." Last week we saw the opinions in part two of Rabbi Tuvia Harofeh, Rabbi Tuvia Cohen, Rabbi David Nieto. We learned the opinion of Rabbi Pinchas of the Pardes Rimmonim. And this week in part three we examined the seven contemporary views. One thing is for sure. And one thing everybody agrees to is that there are many, many worlds out there. We know Chazal say, "Asid Hakadosh Baruch Hu lehanhil lechol tzaddik vetzaddik shai olamot." >> And we know that Hashem created many many stars, millions of stars, maybe trillions of stars. And there's a lot of discussion, what is the purpose of all of these various alamot? What do they exist for? And if you look into Tikunei Zohar, Tikunei Zohar teaches that the number of stars are without number,
