Let's look for Polaris / Baten Kaitos and Al Sharatain in the G text. We have to move back in time from the 'zero-day' of May 24:

The last glyph on side b (puo in Gb8-30) is number 472 counted from the 'zero glyph'. There are 30 glyphs in line Gb8 and 38 - 30 = 8. Line Gb7 has 31 glyphs and therefore Polaris and Baten Kaitos should be at Gb7-24:

Interesting is here vaha mea at Sheratan / Mesarthim because the same type of glyph is also at Aldebaran:

And we can take one step further and compare also the preceding glyphs:

Ga1-3 |
Ga1-4 (476) |
The text appears to follow the Hindu system of lunar stations rather than the systems of the Arabs and the Chinese, because in neither is Aldebaran used as a 'leading star'.
