Major Peake quickly took to Twitter to insist that the incident was not a prank call “just a wrong number!”
NASA astronaut John Grunsfeld called into the radio program Car Talk when he was flying through space aboard the Space Shuttle Atlantis in 1997.
The astronaut did not say who he meant to call on Christmas Eve.
Peake arrived at the ISS on December 15 and he is scheduled to stay there for six months.

Peake, a 43-year-old former army helicopter pilot, left Earth for ISS last week for the beginning of a 171-day mission. Helen Sharman became the first British citizen to travel to space when she visited the Soviet Mir orbiting station in 1991. Commander Scott Kelly also wished holiday wishes from the space station, where he marked his 273rd day on Christmas.
