There's been some chatter on NANOG - they're under DDOS attack apparently.

Subject: [outages] DNS SERVFAIL for nist.gov

We have to query and compare against NIST time servers for FINRA compliance. 
This morning I noticed our systems are unable to DNS query the NIST time 
servers. Neither our local resolvers or google (8.8.8.8) work.

[root@bacall log]# dig @8.8.8.8 time-a-g.nist.gov

The time servers are documented here: https://tf.nist.gov/tf-cgi/servers.cgi

Using the IP addresses work, it look like the nist.gov domain is offline.
