contents A graph $G$ is said to be $d$-distinguishable if there is a labeling of the vertices with $d$ labels so that only the trivial automorphism preserves the labels. The smallest such $d$ is the distinguishing number, Dist($G$). A subset of vertices $S$ is a determining set for $G$ if every automorphism of $G$ is uniquely determined by its action on $S$. The size of a smallest determining set for $G$ is called the determining number, Det($G$). The orthogonality graph $Ω_{2k}$ has vertices which are bitstrings of length $2k$ with an edge between two vertices if they differ in precisely $k$ bits. This paper shows that Det($Ω_{2k}$) $= 2^{2k-1}$ and that if $\binom{m}{2} \geq 2k$ then $2<$ Dist($Ω_{2k}$) $\leq m$.
