The author examines the conjecture made by Brown (1911) that in the restricted three body problem, the long period family of periodic orbits around L4, ends on a homoclinic orbit to L3. By numerical integration he establishes that for the mass ratio Sun-Jupiter such a homoclinic orbit to L3 does not exist but that there exists a family of homoclinic orbits to periodic orbits around L3.
