Extracting values after the maximum value in a txt file

Hello,
I'm new to scripting and I need to write a bash script. Here is example of file on which I'm working:

Code:
      0.3092381      0.3262799      0.3425480      0.3578379      0.3719490
      0.3846908      0.3958855      0.4053738      0.4130160      0.4186991
      0.4223357      0.4238688      0.4232734      0.4205554      0.4157534
      0.4089370      0.4002056      0.3896858      0.3775293      0.3639085

I try to extract maximum value of this txt file. The maximum value is "0.4238688" here.
Then i just want to get values after this maximum value and add zeros for empty spaces. Like this;

Code:
     0.4238688      0.4232734      0.4205554      0.4157534      0.4089370
     0.4002056      0.3896858      0.3775293      0.3639085      0.0000000
     0.0000000      0.0000000      0.0000000      0.0000000      0.0000000
     0.0000000      0.0000000      0.0000000      0.0000000      0.0000000

Any suggestions?
Thank you
