A gas inlet suitable in particular for use in an ion thruster includes a housing which is made of a gas-tight ceramics material, and an insert which is arranged in the housing and is made of a porous ceramics material. The geometry and pore structure of the insert are such that the insert forms a desired flow resistance for a gas stream flowing through the insert.
