You keep missing, or dismissing, the references to “ALL OF CREATION”.

You keep missing the fact that "ALL OF CREATION" was meant for people who didn't understand that there was a bigger picture. The original recipients of the Bible had no idea about the Cosmos, and wouldn't have believed it had they been given the details.

Or do you think this “all of creation” for some reason only means the Earth?

Yes, see above.

I believe the Creation story is about the earth, with only inference to the bigger picture. The only reference to the bigger picture was "and God created the heavens and the earth. From that point on, the Bible is about the earthly domain only.
