Set body = "Moon" to calculate temperatures on the Moon:
out = krc(lat=0,INERTIA=45.,body="Moon",ALBEDO=.12,LKofT="F",ls=0.)
Note: KRC for the Moon has not been formally validated.
For bodies where the duration of a day is significantly longer than the duration of an Earth day like the Moon, the local true solar time can be displayed both as a fraction of 24 (out.time):
out = krc(lat=0,INERTIA=45.,body="Moon",ALBEDO=.12,LKofT="F")
plot(out.tsurf[,1,1],xaxis=out.time)
...or as a delta Julian Date since the local midnight (out.deltaJD):
plot(out.tsurf[,1,1],xaxis=out.deltaJD[,1,1])
