CH04 Image of the day; nasa site errors with 404 between 8 pm - 11:59 pm EDT because it could not generate image for the next day (nasa site assumes it's the next day due to UTC time it uses)

Problem
CH04 Image of the day; nasa site errors with 404 between 8 pm - 11:59 EST pm because it could not generate an image for the next day (nasa site assumes it's the next day due to UTC time it uses)

On 2020-10-25, when launching //localhost:800/image between 8 pm CST and just before 11:00 pm CST, the nasa site for astronomy image of the day returns 404 error and outputs the date as 2020-10-26. Clearly, it's using UTC. Once the time rolls to 11 pm CST (12 am EST), //localhost:800/image returns the expected json with image url.

The workaround is to provide start and end time as the url parameters.

There's a known issue in the APOD API - nasa/apod-api#48. I guess they'll fix it one day, but the NASA team probably have other things to work on. The fix can be ported from here - https://github.com/gumbarros/kepler/blob/master/lib/src/services/api/api.dart#L38.

Does this still happen? nasa/apod-api#51 back in November should have fixed that.
