Antimatter spread

The Enterprise-D, firing an antimatter spread at a Borg cube.

An antimatter spread is a harmless pyrotechnic display consisting of many small antimatter charges. Sensor interference from the deployment of an antimatter spread can serve as a way to confuse sensor readings and mask the launch of small craft.

In 2367, the separated saucer module of the USS Enterprise-D used an antimatter spread while it confronted the Borg following the Battle of Wolf 359. It covered the approach of a shuttlecraft containing Data and Worf, who transported aboard the cube to rescue Captain Picard, assimilated as Locutus of Borg. (TNG: "The Best of Both Worlds, Part II")

The original teaser-trailor for Star Trek: First Contact contained footage of the USS Voyager firing and antimatter spread. However, this was not seen in the movie, nor has it appeared in television.
