Yeah, in case you were wondering, the server is currently down. According to CCP Falcon, mother nature is not to be blamed:
We can confirm that the current issues with Tranquility are not volcano related – We are currently working on restoring service!

According to Chribba’s EVE-Offline website, if you are currently at work you aren’t missing anything in EVE right now:
Tranquility is currently experiencing a few connectivity issues – we are looking into the issue! Apologies for any inconvenience!

We’ll keep updating.
The official EVE Online Status twitter account just announced how the connectivity issues are to be blamed on a Denial of Service Attack on their services:
Tranquility is currently under a second DDoS attack. We hope to have services up and running again soon. Apologies for the inconvenience!
