The Name Servers of a domain reveal the DNS servers that are responsible for its DNS records. The Internet protocol address of the web site (A record), the mail server that deals with the emails for a domain address (MX records), any text record in free form (TXT record), directing (CNAME record) and so forth are extracted from the DNS servers of the hosting provider and for any domain name to be using them and to be directed to their hosting platform, it needs to have their name servers, or NS records. If you wish to open a site, for instance, and you type the URL, the web browser connects to a DNS server, which keeps the NS records for the domain and the request is then sent to the DNS servers of the hosting company where the A record of the website is obtained, so you can look at the content from the proper location. Ordinarily a domain address has 2 name servers that start with NS or DNS as a prefix and the contrast between the two is just visual.
