   Highly excited atoms in the upper atmosphere arouse interest of a many
   specialists. Today, they still remain a poorly understood phenomenon.

   This paper presents the first results of experimental research of the
   excited atom dynamics in the upper atmosphere. Spectral lines of oxygen
   atoms have been obtained. The results of ionosonde and night sky camera
   observations are compared with the obtained data.
