Default remove alpha or non-numeric characters from cell

I have columns of data (one for each employee) each cell per column
represents a date and in each cell is a summary of the report each employee
is working on. I am looking for a formula to remove all non-numerical
charactes from a given cell. For my reports, I only need to identify or
extract all the numeric characters which are the report ids. All the numbers
end with ".##"

Cell Entry: 635.09 -LR (MG) 672.09 - LR (KM) 31.08-R
I need to extract only the number so I end up with: 635.09 672.09 31.08 with
spaces added between each number.

Can this be done?
