The above link is for version 3. There is an earlier version too.

I use it on my netbook as it doesn't require the high graphics that Stellarium does. In fact for skuy mapping it is better as it is clearer.

I have both versions installed and it is very good.

As for online classes I haven't a clue.
Do you have more interesting links to other places or objects?
