UCAR is a non-profit consortium of research universities based in Boulder, Colorado, that manages and operates the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) on behalf of the U.S. National Science Foundation.
What it's used for
- Research and administrative networking for UCAR/NCAR — atmospheric, climate, and Earth-system science, including large observational datasets and supercomputing.
Notable
- Addresses here are institutional research infrastructure, classified
educationrather than commercial hosting, even though the network resembles a large scientific data center.
Interesting
- NCAR operates some of the world's major climate and weather supercomputers, and UCAR runs shared community facilities (aircraft, radars, data archives) used by atmospheric scientists worldwide.

Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 431 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
