Ascension Day, also known as the Feast of the Ascension, for Christians, commemorates Jesus Christ’s ascension into heaven. According to Christian belief, this event took place in the presence of his eleven apostles, 40 days after the resurrection. It's mentioned in the New Testament of the Bible in both the Gospel of Mark and the Acts of the Apostles, providing a foundational scriptural basis for the observance.
