photon torpedo
Light-named spacecraft weapon
A photon torpedo is a fictional weapon in the Star Trek universe—a self-propelled projectile carrying antimatter that detonates on impact.
The term has become shorthand in science fiction for any advanced ship-to-ship missile: The captain ordered photon torpedoes locked on target.
Sometimes used playfully for any imagined futuristic weapon.
