USNO REST API in R

I am trying to extract moonrise and set times from the US Naval Observatory Rest API using the htrr and jsonlite packages. However, I keep getting an error saying, please supply dates in an MM/DD/YYYY format. Which I believe I am, so quite confused.

library(httr)
library(jsonlite)

GET("https://aa.usno.navy.mil/api/rstt/oneday?date=09/20/2005&coords=47.60,-122.33")

The message is confusing, but it seems that we may need to pass in the YYYY-MM-DD format

out <- GET("https://aa.usno.navy.mil/api/rstt/oneday?date=2005-09-20&coords=47.60,-122.33")

-output

out

  "geometry": {

      -122.33, 
      47.6
    ], 
    "type": "Point"
  }, 
  "properties": {

Then, extract the content

library(dplyr)
library(rrapply)
> rrapply(content(out)$properties$data, how = "bind")

By checking the webpage, it is more evident i.e. format specified seems to be incorrect
