FW: NASA (and e.root-servers.net) off the air (?)

Has anyone confirmed the below? Posted to NANOG ...
This would explain really bad DNS latency I saw today,
when doing some KeyNote analysis on some sites we host.

It appears that all of NASA, including e.root-servers.net at Ames, is
off the net (and has been most of the day). I've heard something about
them having some kind of trouble at MAE-EAST and MAE-WEST; does anybody
know anything more than that?

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
