The spectrum of a hydrogen atom in a strong magnetic field was derived. The orbit radius was directly estimate from the well-known spectrum of electron in a magnetic field. The evolution of the hydrogen nodal ones is less obvious. The results show that in a sufficiently strong magnetic field, the motion of an atomic electron becomes almost one-dimensional along the magnetic field in the Coulomb potential.
