The paper describes the design of the Mesopause Oxygen Rotational Temperature Imager, MORTI, built for the measurement of integrated rotational temperature and emission rate of O2 atmospheric (0-1) nightglow layer at 95 km and for the characterization of internal atmospheric gravity waves passing through this layer. Special attention is given to the optical configuration of MORTI, the data acquisition system, and the sensitivity considerations. The internal gravity wave characteristics obtained by MORTI over Puerto Rico on April 5/6, 1989 are presented.
