passtimes endpoint occasionally return n-1 passes instead of n passes #3

This seems to reliably happen when the ISS is currently passing overhead of the location your are checking, but I have seen a handful of other times (can't reliably reproduce other than the 'currently above' situation)

Love this project--thank you for providing this service.

I'm seeing this bug too. Example:

{ message: "success", request: { altitude: 60, datetime: 1430072043, latitude: 38.939626, longitude: -76.990228, passes: 3 }, response: [ { duration: 580, risetime: 1430083221 }, { duration: 624, risetime: 1430089001 } ] }

Hi all, thank you for your time in this project.

I've seen that this bug happens when the ISS is above in the sky but the API continues returning n-1 passes after the ISS has passed. But it doesn't happen at all the occasions that the ISS is above us.
