    The goal of this paper is to announce there is a single orbit of the c.e. sets with inclusion, \E, such that the question of membership in this orbit is Σ11\Sigma^1_1-complete. This result and proof have a number of nice corollaries: the Scott rank of \E is \wock +1; not all orbits are elementarily definable; there is no arithmetic description of all orbits of \E; for all finite α≥9\alpha \geq 9, there is a properly Δα0\Delta^0_\alpha orbit (from the proof). A few small corrections made in this versionComment: To appear in the Bulletion of Symbolic Logi
