You need to stop letting facts and evidence get in the way of The Truth™

Yes -- precisely sloppy.You can read it in detail in the book of Numbers.It contains Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth.
It contains no instructions for surviving in zero G, or in a vacuum.
So no. No instructions for leaving earth

I somehow don't think you -- or science -- are qualified to call anything in the Bible "obviously false."
And again, you think things in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary.

And so much more.

Ah, but this "so much more" is by definition unobservable (in principal, I don't mean stuff that we can't observe today but could observe in the future) because if it was observable, it would be included in the category that Mr Laurier provided. And so, you have no way of showing that it exists at all.

To combine both Mr Laurier's and my posts:

Reality is that which can be observed, and so much more.

But It does contain instructions, should you not survive zero G.
Nope.
It contains instructions for building a tent with a sacrificial altar inside.
And instructions for committing genocide.
And for how to beat slaves correctly. And who can be enslaved. And how to blackmail a short-term slave into becoming a permanent slave.
But nothing about zero G

And you failed completely to address my point.

You have no way of showing that the unobservable stuff exists at all, do you?

Well, if you're not going to back your position up with anything, then all you've got is a position asserted without evidence, and so I will reject it precisely because it has no evidence.
Suit yourself.

You want to live in a cave, go ahead.

But there is more to reality than meets the eye.
