In a 20-minute Facebook Live video call with two NASA astronauts - Tim Kopra and Jeff Williams - and a European Space Agency astronaut Tim Peake, Zuckerberg will ask questions and use the service to enable viewers to livestream themselves.

Zuckerberg will speak with astronauts living and working aboard the International Space Station (ISS) at 12:55 PM (local time) on Wednesday, June 1, NASA said in a statement.

The ISS serves as the world's leading laboratory for conducting cutting-edge microgravity research, and is the primary platform for technology development and testing in space to enable human and robotic exploration of destinations beyond low-Earth orbit, including asteroids and Mars.
