In Luke 24:51, Jesus was carried bodily up to heaven in the presence of the disciples near Bethany, on the evening following his resurrection. In Acts 1:9, written some time after the Gospel, Jesus was taken up bodily to heaven in the presence of the disciples near Jerusalem, on the day of the Jewish Pentecost forty days following his resurrection.
Answer:
The ascending shortly after His being resurrected as the 'Wave Sheaf' Offering for all mankind is recorded here on the beginning of the 4th day after His crucifixion:
John 20:17New King James Version (NKJV)17 Jesus said to her, "Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, 'I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God.'"
His appeared to many afterwards during the next forty days:
Acts 1:3New King James Version (NKJV)3 to whom He also presented Himself alive after His suffering by many infallible proofs, being seen by them during forty days and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.
Shortly after this Ascension - 10 days, the promised Holy Spirit came upon the disciples and other new followers at the Pentecost which means 50 - days from the Resurrection during the Feast of Unleavened Bread.
Some biblical scholars have dated this timeline as follows:
Crucifixion: Passover, Wednesday, 25 April 31 AD, 9th hour
Resurrection: Saturday, Feast of Unleavened Bread, 28 Apr
Wave Sheaf Offering: Sunday, 29 April 31 AD
Ascension: Sunday, 1st Pentecost, 17 June 31 AD.

What day is when Mary went to heaven?
AnswerThe gospels say that Jesus rose from the grave on the third day - Sunday. The passages in which Jesus rose to heaven are called the ascension, and are only found in Luke's Gospel and Acts of the Apostles. Luke says that Jesus was seen by the disciples to ascend bodily to heaven on the evening of the same day as his resurrection from the grave (Luke 24:51) - Sunday.Acts of the Apostles, written by the same author but some time later, says that Jesus remained on earth for forty days after his resurrection from the grave and was then seen by the disciples to ascend bodily to heaven. Acts is not sufficiently specific about exactly how many days the risen Jesus was on earth to say which day this was.
