In this paper, an optimal trajectory of the rocket angle with a variable mass will be calculated by considering the aerodynamic forces, the acceleration of gravity and moves with a non-rectilinear motion from a initial state to a final state with a known altitude. The aim is to optimize the lateral offset of the rocket. For this, we formulate an optimal control problem where the rocket angle is the control. In order to solve the problem, let applied Shooting method's based on the Pontryagin's maximum principle, and study the precision and a duration time. Finally, we validate the results by using MATLAB software.
