After earning her doctorate Morozhenko moved to
Kyiv, where she worked at the Main Astronomical Observatory of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. She was made academic secretary in 1962. Morozhenko specialised in
heliophysics, with a particular focus on protuberances. Protuberances represent the reddish gaseous substances that are ejected into the corona by the chromosphere. Protuberances can be calm or disruptive, and are very disruptive during solar eclipses. Calm protuberances, which last longer than eruptive ones, can persist for several months. Morozhenko studied the heterogeneous structure of protuberances and attempted to understand their spectral features. She used transfer and variable source theories to construct a structurally inhomogeneous model of the solar protuberance. She explained the spectral shape of various protuberances by studying their density and fibrousness. == Personal life ==
