The invention relates to the technical field of spacecraft propulsion, in particular to a microwave cathode ion thruster which comprises an air inlet pipeline, a microwave power source, a microwave neutralizer, a microwave cathode system, a thruster discharge chamber and a grid system. Wherein the gas inlet pipeline comprises a first gas inlet pipeline communicated with a microwave neutralizer, a second gas inlet pipeline communicated with a microwave cathode system and a third gas inlet pipeline communicated with a thruster discharge chamber; the microwave power supply is respectively connected with the microwave neutralizer and the microwave cathode system; the microwave cathode system is arranged at the input end of the thruster discharge chamber, and the grid system is arranged at the output end of the thruster discharge chamber; and the microwave neutralizer is communicated with the thruster discharge chamber and is close to the output end of the thruster discharge chamber. The ultra-low earth orbit environment gas can be used as a working medium, the service life of the thruster is long, the energy of electron flow can be improved, the energy of primary electrons can be effectively increased, and therefore the plasma ionization degree of the discharge chamber can be improved.
