The cylindrically shaped rocket motor charge has a flat circular base at one end and a semispherical portion at the end remote from the base. It is composed of a plurality of propellants of prescribed and graduated burning rates, advantageous contours and dimensions such that the burning of all of the propellants in a grain ends at the same time. This result is accomplished by designing the propellants as long cone structures with sharp edges and points and with mathematically determined inclinations and proportionate dimensions.
