This paper describes the development of the software system, Uniview, the motivation behind some of the most prominent features of the system and the strengths and challenges of running a development project in such close collaboration with the users. Uniview is a sophisticated system for the visual display and exploration of the enormous and complex data which the human race has gathered about the universe. This beautiful, fascinating data, with it s sheer size both in terms of data elements and the distances between the objects in the known universe, presents challenges to the developer at all levels: from basic rendering through representation and to data managment.
