The Genesis account of Creation did not mention and did not record the creatures of other planets or clusters or constellations of galaxies or the milky way or angels, except heaven and its host, that is the sun, moon and stars (Genesis 1 & 2). Why or what is the reason?

The Holy Scriptures is the record of the creation of man by God, man's relationship with God, and man's salvation through God. The history of creation leaves out much detail regarding all of creation, but emphasizes what is relational to man's existence and his future. Having the complete focus on man, there is little, or some subtle mention, or mere implications but without much detail regarding the creation of angels, galaxies, and other features. What do we think we know about creatures on other planets? We have no evidence of any of that! God authorized man to fill the earth and to subdue it (Genesis 1:28). Thus, man is the central figure of God's creation and the object of His unconditional love and deep affection throughout the Holy Scriptures.
