No. A big asteroid hit the Earth and broke off a chunk of it early in Earth's history. That chunk became the moon. The same collision is responsible for the tilt in Earth's axis that causes the seasons to change.

Is it always a full moon in space?

No. Whether the moon looks "full" or not depends on the positions of the sun, the moon, the Earth and you (the observer). So even though you're in space, the moon will still not look full unless all these things were lined up properly. However, it would be possible to always see a full moon if you were in space and kept moving your own position - except for the rare times when the light of the sun is blocked by the Earth from reaching the moon.
