How I can determine the time when the middle track returned by getGroundTracks ends?

I could do something complicated and get the point of the satellite at the startTimeMS, find the closest point to that in the middle track and work it out from there.

But, I figure there should be a way to compute it directly.

There isn't. The best way to do this is by brute force.
