Original Note:
The video shows the Apollo 17 ascent module taking off, filmed by a camera mounted on a rover left behind. The camera was remotely controlled from Earth via an antenna on the rover, and its movements during ascent were pre-programmed because of the time delay. https://www.quora.com/Why-does-all-the-moon-landing-footage-from-the-60s-70s-look-so-fake https://www.reuters.com/article/fact-check/apollo-17-ascent-from-moon-was-captured-by-camera-left-on-lunar-surface-idUSL1N38K1VM/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HQfauGJaT
