Regarding the bodily ascension of Jesus into heaven after the resurrection: Is Jesus floating around Earth in orbit, robe billowing around him as in a heavy wind? Did Jesus continue to accelerate until he reached light speed -- in which case, what trajectory did he take? Is that direction the way to get to the Father?

Nah, he turned half a degree to the left and thus slipped into an alternate dimension.

If so, that would have to have been after he went behind the clouds:

[Acts 1:7] [Jesus] said to them: "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority.
[8] But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."
[9] After he said this, he was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid him from their sight.
[10] They were looking intently up into the sky as he was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them.
[11] "Men of Galilee," they said, "why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven."

Second star to the right, and straight on til morning.

No, wait, that's Neverland.

Actually, I was thinking last night that it might be possible to calculate the location and orientation of the Earth 2000 years ago, at the approximate moment of Jesus' ascension. Then, whatever direction we could determine was "straight up" from Galilee at that point would be the trajectory Jesus took.
