The server does not answer pings, look at this:

jlfencey@jellix:~> ping www.stsc.hill.af.mil
PING wbmas-stsc1.hill.af.mil (137.241.248.34) from XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX : 
56(84) bytes of data.

--- wbmas-stsc1.hill.af.mil ping statistics ---
8 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% loss, time 7011ms

But it answers http requests:

jlfencey@jellix:~> telnet www.stsc.hill.af.mil 80
