The first column is MJD. The second column is seconds within that day.
(I chopped off the right end to avoid line wrap.)

It took me a while to figure out what was going on. I got confused when
didn't see anything interesting at midnight.
23:59:46 is 14 seconds early. I guess they inserted the leap second at
midnight GPS time rather than midnight UTC.
