This refers to when Jesus returned to heaven after having completed His work on earth. Specifically it refers to the method He used, actually ascending into the sky, as witnessed by those who were present and reported it.
9And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. 10And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; 11Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.
