Abstract: We announce and outline a proof of the existence of a homoclinic orbit of the Lorenz equations. In addition, we develop a shooting technique and two key conditions, which lead to the existence of a one-to-one correspondence between a set of solutions and the set of all infinite sequences of 1's and 3's.
