No, the moon's surface becoming hot is not an example of convection. Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids or gases. The moon's lack of atmosphere means heat is mainly transferred through radiation from the sun.
The moon has no atmosphere to support life.
Astronauts did not freeze on the Moon because there is no atmosphere to conduct heat away from their bodies. Additionally, the spacesuits they wore were equipped with heating systems to regulate their body temperature.
The Sun is the source of almost all heat in the Solar System. The Moon has only the Sun for a primary source of its own temperature ... so the moon is not as hot as the sun for the same reason a person standing twenty feet from a campfire is not as hot as the campfire itself: it is distant from the Sun and temperature decreases with distance.
Newton's Law of Gravitation.
Heat from the sun travels through space to the moon via electromagnetic radiation. When the sun's rays hit the moon's surface, they are absorbed and heat up the surface of the moon. However, the moon has no atmosphere to trap the heat, so temperatures fluctuate drastically between day and night.

Roatation of the Earth, tidal effects by the Moon and Sun, heat convection from the core, heat transfer from the land masses, evaporation from the surface, rainfall, insolation and season.
Titan will get a very small amount of heat from the Sun, a very small amount of heat from tidal pulling from Saturn and a very small amount from heat transfer from the inner regions. So for all intensive purposes, no.

From the sun.
Heat is transferred to the moon primarily through radiation. The sun's energy is absorbed by the moon's surface during the day, and is released as heat radiating out into space at night. The lack of atmosphere on the moon means there is no convection or conduction of heat.
we have to connect mini rockets to the main rocket which will transfer material
