The P'nti are a Star Nation who manage a facility beneath the Sandia Mountain on the eastern edge of Albuquerque. While those visited by the P'nti often see them with the black retractable lenses over their eyes, beneath them the P'nti have beautiful eye colors similar to our own but also including shades of lavender and amber.

Sometimes you get some really fun questions from the newest trainees at the Sandia Mountain Information Station. One of my favorites is, "Did you learn moonwalking on the moon?"

Sarah (whose real name is actually pronounced "Ser-hah") is the Sandia Mountain Information Stations Official First Contact historian. She studied official first contacts on other worlds and brought her knowledge to help prepare us for Earth's OFC in the fall of 2021.

Children are considered a blessed and sacred part of P'nti culture. Even before they are born, the parents, family and teachers telepathically beginning communicating and sharing with the child.

This is Kit, one of the P'nti cultural liaisons of the Sandia Mountain Information Station. She is part of an all female team and truly anticipates being invited to experience the homes of her contactees. She confesses that she does sample the foods (especially good chocolate) offered by her Earth Human friends when she goes out on missions. In her off duty hours, Kit studies various Earth painting styles and enjoys trying her hand at imitating those techniques herself. She also likes visiting artists' homes and loves to sit quietly behind them for hours watching them work. She often teaches her Earth Human friends in their dreams, but honestly openly admits to being a dreamer herself.

Zoot is a newly graduated trainee who is now beginning to work on one of the visiting mission team. When asked about his hat, he told us he always wore it backwards...unless he was in bright light, when he turns it right way around to use the brim to help shade his eyes. Zoot's favorite color is red...does it show?

Many individuals involved in volunteering to help move Earth toward it's Official First Contact (OFC) are familiar with Commander Tlkm, the P'nti manager of the Sandia Mountain Information Station. You can also help move Earth toward a positive OFC by proudly wearing a "I work for Tlkm" shirt. Those who have tell us people have stopped them on the street asking "Where did you get that shirt?" It's been a conversation starter for sure.

Meet Radar - the P'nti's very own Renaissance man. Radar is one of the Sandia Mountain Information Station's pilots, he is a stellar cartographer, and Earth-media specialist. He also plays a mean rock-n-roll guitar. Radar has an eclectic wardrobe of styles seen in the entertainment industry throughout history. Not to mention his collection of hats...which will be viewed here at a later date. Stay tuned - you never know what might happen when Radar is involved!

Mim is the resident artist of the Sandia Mountain Information Station and encourages the growth of artistic skills in Earth Humans who invite her for a visit.

Let me introduce you to Dell, Sandia Mountain Information Station's hangar chief...and faux grump. Dell is a perfect combination of today's Clint Eastwood, and (the original) MacGyver. He can fix anything, he runs a tight ship (a particle of dust would not *dare* to land on one of his shiny engines!), and he's responsible for fixing the damaged caused by certain speedy-junkie pilots. *cough* Radar *cough* However, when those fixed up Sunfish class ships, like the Delta Dawn II, need to go out for a test flight...it's usually Dell at the controls teaching those "kids" a thing or two about flying. Hey Dell, can you sneak us poor Earth-humans one of those nifty floating lights, like the one in your picture?

T'ni was introduced to us in June 2016 as our new telepathy teacher. She worked with us for a year translating the Telepathy 101 Primer, which was published in December 2017. Since then, the Primer has been translated into more than a dozen languages.

Equine Love

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.

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.

Beam is one of the female blended P'nti visiting liaisons who recently completed the training program at the Sandia Mountain Information Station.

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.

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.

Commander Tlkm, manager of the Sandia Mountain Information Station was speaking about gestural languages being the most common form of communication in our galaxy when he shared this image.

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.

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?"

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.

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.

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."
