Where in the Bible does it talk about when Satan (lucifer) was cast out of Heaven and 1/3 of the angels followed him?

Good answers, but I've heard more than once that there were 1/3 of the angels that rebelled... anybody? Or does it really not refer to that and that's just a myth?

Revelation 12:3: ...another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on his heads. 4His tail swept a third of the stars out of the sky and flung them to the earth.
Revelation 12:7-9: 7And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. 8But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. 9The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.

It's not so much a test but a choice, You choose either God's heaven >To Life or Satan's sinful Heaven >to Death. He as well as "US "were given a work week (6 Days) to make up our minds (choice) If God were to immediately blot out Lucifer and Sin he would have been a Tyrant. Which would have taken away our "God given right to choose." God does not want slaves but people who chose to be with him. So we were given a week to choose. A 6 day work week, 7th day The Sabbath. For those who choose God the Sabbath is spent in heaven with God for a 1000 Years. For Those who choose Satan remain dead on a devastated earth and only Satan is alive and "Chained" to the earth ALONE for a 1000 years "The Sabbath" to wonder the earth and to ponder his Sin and with no one to tempt and seduce. Revelation 20 The Thousand Years 20 And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain. 2 He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. 3 He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time. Thus the earth we know is only a little under 6000 years old. the Seventh Day (Sabbath) is the next 1000 years. After this 7000 years is when God Moves his Government and His people (Humans) Back to a renewed earth. 2 Peter 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing: that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
Revelations 12:9

Rev chapter 12.
But you will notice that Revelation was written concerning the 'Lord's Day'.
So Satan was cast out of heaven sometime after Christ returned to heaven, and at the beginning of the Lord's Day.

Rev. 12:3-4 is often interpreted as saying that, but Jesus says that explicitly in Luke 10:18 where He said that He saw satan (small 's') fall from heaven like lightning.
