one applies the principle that first-order statements that hold across all pre-
ferred universes (hopefully including solutions to independent questions)
also hold in V (an assumption based partly on the downward Lowenheim-
Skolem theorem), and adopts these statements as new axioms of set theory.
This being, in a nutshell, the Hyperuniverse Program, one clearly sees that
it shares the fundamental aim of Gödel's program of extending ZFC by newset-theoretic axioms resulting from "a more profound understanding of basic
concepts underlying logic and mathematics".In fact,within the Hyperuni-
verse Program one formulates principles and criteria for preferred universes
that are suggested by a logico-mathematical analysis of the hyperuniverse.
Also, Gödel's suggestion to consider a “maximn property of the system of
all sets" for extending ZFC is addressed by this program. Indeed maximality
works well as a principle inspiring criteria for preferred universes.Moreover,
in both Gödel's program and the Hyperuniverse Program, one seeks to find
solutions to independent questions in a way that may be regarded as ultimate
and not revisable, and hence may be regarded as definitive or true in V,the
universe of all sets.

"The formulation of criteria for preferred universes is not an casy task. In particular the
possibility of conflicting desiderata to be imposed on preferred universes of sets cannot be
