Was the moon landing real ?

I know I normally just post skate related stuff, but I found this pretty interesting. I became more interested in the Moon landing conspiracy after listening to the current Infected podcast. This video appears to show astronauts staging a broadcast from space. They were trying to make the earth appear farther away than it really was, as if they were on their way to the moon. If the astronauts were not staging this then what were they doing.
