I didn't read the phrase "creation story" as literally referring the start of astronomy. It's a punchy allusion that fits well with the themes and thesis of the article.
What does that have to do with anything discussed here, or said in the article you responded to? "Creation" is a word used for more than that one thing that seems to occupy your mind as its only use. Please consult a dictionary, the religious meaning is only one of many. When I create software I'm not doing anything religious as far as I can tell. Never even mind that the submission title explicitly states what "creation" is meant: "of astronomy" (that's a scientific field). One might argue whether Kepler & Co. mark the time and place where "astronomy" was created or whether the article's subject actually is the creation of astronomy or just a famous episode from its much longer history, still has nothing to do with your purely religious interpretation of a common word. If you actually read the article you will find that this article is about - astronomy. As promised in the title.
