Issues accessing oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov

We can not access the ocean color website (https://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/) at the University of Southern Mississippi (USM), MS, US.

It looks like they (https://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/) are blocking connections from our campus. I ran a traceroute and could see where the traffic leaves our network, hits the internet, and is then being blocked on their end. I googled “I cannot access oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov”, and I can see where other people have had this same issue.
I’m not sure how to contact them, but I’m looking into it now. They will need to add our IP address range (131.95.0.0/16) to their “allowed” list in order for anyone on campus to access their site.
