Zuckerberg to chat with astronauts on the ISS

Zuckerberg is scheduled to go live from the Facebook headquarters with astronauts now living and working on the International Space Station on June 1, at 9.55 am PT or 10.25 pm IST. During this time, NASA astronaut Jeff Williams slowly fed air into the module while being monitored by mission control at the Johnson Space Center in Houston.

"One of the main things that we do is try to understand the impacts of zero gravity on the human body", said Kopra, the commander of the ISS.

Astronauts will stay inside the module about three to four times annually to study how the BEAM module can stand up to space debris, solar radiation and extreme temperatures while on the job.

"As a rookie astronaut on my first flight, there were so many new experiences", Peake said.

The extendable room is the work of Bigelow Aerospace in Nevada, whose founder, Robert Bigelow, already owns a chain of hotels on Earth. "It's all of those kinds of elements that the training just can't prepare you for".

And now, in another technological breakthrough, the people on Earth connected live to the astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS).

Facebook will be going where no social media site has gone before: space!

NASA hit a snag while trying to inflate an experimental room at the International Space Station on Thursday and put everything on indefinite hold. Zuckerberg said, adding that the floating microphone reminded him a lot of the experiences created in virtual reality.

Another pastime, often done during meals, is playing around in microgravity. "We all get to be kids again". Most astronauts will say that their taste does change in space, that food is more bland and they prefer spicier foods. But it will be interesting to see what the general public really wants to know about.

The myth-busting space men also chose to reveal the truth about astronaut ice cream, which is not the chalky, dried out substance us landlubbers believe it to be. I think we're down to our last few bars.
