Any application can register a custom URL scheme, and when your app opens that URL, IOS will switch to the application that has registered that URL scheme. The Facebook app has registered such a scheme, with apparently quite some capabilities. See wiki.akosma.com.

However, I don't think that you can switch back to your app after that. So, if you just want to fetch some Facebook information, then you are probably better off using the Facebook web interfaces. You don't need to have the Facebook app installed at all when doing that.
