Where is heaven?

A spiritual realm where God, the spirits of the saints and the angels are. Also identified as the “third heaven”.

The first heaven is the sky where the birds fly. The second heaven is space where the stars are. Both are part of the physical realm.

Peace to you

I think of it as a different dimension… the spiritual dimension. Better to not think about it directionally but dimensionally… its a “revealing”

Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth. For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, is revealed, then you also will be revealed with Him in glory.
— Colossians 3:1-4

Do when Jesus ascended into Heaven - did Jesus experience a "dimension transformation"?

Such a good question! To be honest, I have no idea, but I like to speculate ;D

I think after His resurrection He was glorified in body, which is what let him appear among His disciples through a locked door (Jn 20:26). From 1 Jn 3 we will be transformed to be like Him when He appears, whixh ia pretty amazing! What purposes will He have for us in the future age of righteousness?! Amazing to even consider!

But you bring up a great point… why ascend on the clouds? Maybe just the fulfillment of Daniel 7? Maybe to help them understand His final departure from the earth?
