Beam is one of the female liaisons at the Sandia Mountain Information Station, and extraterrestrial facility 2 miles deep beneath the Sandia Mountain on the eastern edge of Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Jll (say Jah-ill) is one of the Sandia Mountain Information Station trainees. She is in training to work on one of the 6 person visiting teams that respond to invitations by Earth Humans who have studied the Telepathy 101 Primer (available for free on officialfirstcontact.com) and followed the protocols for CE5 contact.

How does one describe Zufu? The best way is to say this...he is a man continually in search of his next cup of hot t'ch (ta-Cha). That's coffee to us Earth humans. Zufu (also affectionately known as 'Fuzz' to Radar) spent years working in aquatic studies and surveys, and has only recently transferred to the Information Desk at the Sandia Mountain facility where he has quickly become a regular favorite with the Twitter locals. One wonders if a personal coffee maker might not make an excellent present for this young Pnti.

With a nod to the classic science fiction movie "2001" this is Radar, the Earth media specialist of the Sandia Mountain Information Station, with reflections in visor of his EVA suit's helmet just like the movie's character Dr. David "Dave" Bowman.

A Star Nation called the P'nti (say pon-tee) have been operating out of a facility beneath the Sandia Mountain in central New Mexico (USA) now for thousands of years. They have recently published a manual teaching Earth Humans how to improve their telepathic communication skills, as well as the protocol for inviting them for a visit. Now, people from all over the world are inviting them for a visit, receiving one, and then reporting back with evidence, some of them repeatedly. For more information, see officialfirstcontact.com.

Some things are what the P'nti call "universal joys"...something that brings a smile, a laugh, or an instinct to joyfully play that crosses species. Soap bubbles are one of those thing.

When Radar, one of the youngest members of the P'nti staff originally heard of this dance step here on Earth, the first question he asked was, "Did you learn moonwalking on the moon?"

Jrooti was the first female P'nti that we were introduced to in late January, early February of 2015. Jrooti is one of their experienced cultural liaison and part of the all female mission team going out on CE5 visitation requests. Jrooti does not like her head cold and prefers the feel of silk scarves she has discovered here on Earth. In her off duty hours, Jrooti and other telepathic Star Nation friends visit the Amazon rain forest and telepathically merge with the large bird flocks there. They compete with each other forming moving images in the sky with thousands of birds at once in an art/sport called flykiting.

Zufu often is on the information desk at the Sandia Station early in the mornings answering questions from the public. Straightforward with a wry sense of humor, Zufu often helps with sharing words and phrases from his language. Most often, when he first hops onto Twitter in the predawn hours, you will see him ask, "Dkyw Kwh, cjcj whh?" (Good morning Blue Water People, what's up?"

Orth, one of the P'nti of the Sandia Mountain Information Station helped us understand that our Zeta friends accept and embrace homosexuality within their culture. Orth told us that there were more genders out in the Milky Way Galaxy than we knew and when it comes to the expression of that, he smiled and simply said, "Love is love is love."

Who's behind that black stare? What manner of man is this? Part Jedi? Part Security Chief? Part...kitten rescuer in fuzzy slippers? Yes! To all of the above! This is Tht (Thought). He is the Head of Security for the Sandia Mountain Information Station and proud companion to "Lost Kitty - Hairball of Light," the weeks old kitten he rescued outside the station one day not long ago. Now this telekinesis wielding Security Head must protect his tender toes from the sharp claws of a playful kitten by wearing fuzzy bunny slippers. Surely, those lenses hide nothing but the kindest eyes in the galaxy, right? We may soon find out - check back later!

This is Jrooti, one of the P'nti liaisons from the Sandia Mountain information station caught in a quiet meditative moment.

When you are far, far from your own world, Earth can seem like a lonely place. One of the P'nti trainees of the Sandia Mountain Information Station requested this portrait and wanted to let us know that as exciting as participating in a planet's Official First Contact is, sometimes they still really do miss home.

Friendly, fun, curious and still learning about Earth, Pita enjoys visiting contactees all over the world. Recently he's taken to educating himself about Earth music and dance, and has learned that you do not have to visit Earth's moon to learn to moonwalk.

Say hello to Jrooti. No really - reach out and say hello. She's waiting to return the greeting to you, but she wonders...are you too afraid to reach out for someone who may not seem 'real' and convey a greeting? Hopefully not! Jrooti's mission at Sandia Mountain is Cultural Liaison, and that means getting Earth-humans ready to meet the Star Nations (specifically the Pnti), and getting them ready to meet Earth-humans. Help her in quest to bring understanding to both peoples.

Jll (say Jah-el) is one of the visiting liaison specialists working under the Sandia Mountain. Jll is an accomplished musician and plays an instrument similar to a harp bak home.

Meet Grayson, or as he is known by numerous of his fellows, Grayspeare. Grayson is a cultural liaison at the Sandia Mountain Information Station. One of his favorite literary icons is none other than Earth's own Williams Shakespeare. Don't let this contemplative look fool you; he is also quite the jokester. Like all P'nti he loves to laugh and have fun. You might well imagine that here in his portrait he is pondering the eternal question, "To prank, or not to prank. That is the question."

Hand in Hand depicts the simple but powerful image of a flesh colored Earth Human hand whose fingers are intertwining with those of a grey skinned extraterrestrial. The symbolism here is a powerful one and depicts friendship, working together, cooperation, and moving toward Earth's Official First Contact as a unified pair instead of individually.

When most people think of Bigfoot or Sasquatch, they picture full grown adult males. They often do not stop to consider the gals, nor the children. This portrait is of the close up of a young Sasquatch boy (on a windy day) who's image was captured as he was investigating the the lens of a trail cam.

Sometimes the Sandia Mountain Information Station trainees have interesting and unusual questions. In a discussion one day about words and phrases that are used to describe extraterrestrials, the phrase "little green men" was brought up. One of the P'nti trainees looked over at us curiously and asked, "You mean...I'm a little green guy?"

Jrooti is one of the P'nti's cultural liaisons. She was the first P'nti introduced to us who was female. Soft spoken and gracious, Jrooti enjoys wearing silk and sampling whatever dark chocolate she can find here on Earth.

I have a guilty pleasure, which is westerns and anything Native American. I also have a favourite Western artist called JD Challenger (google him) So I've created this mixed media piece in the style of JD Challenger, based on an old black and white photo of a Crow man named Swallow Bird, taken at the turn of the last century by Edward Curtis. I have painted pieces in this style before, but not for a good few years.

You can't go wrong with Northwest coast Haida art, it's been popular for decades. These First Nations designs are ideal for apparel and always look good. This is my first attempt to an original design. The skull is a subject which is often depicted in art. I designed this formline skull in the frontal with one eye having a tear. Due to my family in British Columbia, for instance Vancouver BC, Haida Formline art has been part of my life. The Pacific Northwest coast is a beautiful place where I spent some happy holidays and a couple of years ago I decided to learn some of its native art. Formline is an indigenous art made by the First Nation people of Northwest coast of North America. The term formline is invented by Bill Holm. We...
