Python GEKKO: Objective function not showing correct results

I am trying to optimize the trajectory of a thrust propelled system. The control variable is the mass flow rate, and the final objective is to maximize the mass

GEKKO does not find optimal solution for a moon lander that does not go to zero height at zero speed

I'm trying to solve an optimal control problem where a person lands on the Moon, but has a device that can propel her upwards, via a control parameter, alpha. T
