Core Data is a data storage framework to manage objects in iOS and OS X applications. Core Data is part of the Cocoa API. These timestamps are sometimes labeled 'Mac absolute time'.

A Core Data timestamp is the number of seconds (or nanoseconds) since midnight, January 1, 2001, GMT (see CFAbsoluteTime).
The difference between a Core Data timestamp and a Unix timestamp (seconds since 1/1/1970) is 978307200 seconds.

The current Core Data timestamp is 732530230 or in nanoseconds: 732530230000000000
