Could we power a starship if we opened up a cell phone, cut its lithium-ion battery in half, and put it in the anti-matter chamber?

Has the age of the galaxy been changed from 300 million years after the BIG BANG to 350 million years after the BIG BANG? Is it just a baby now?

Wouldn't 50 billion years just be a small blip in cosmic terms?

3.6x the age of the universe itself is a blip?
Could it be that I thought that DNSB said the age of the galaxy was 300 to 350 billion years rather than 300 to 350 million?

Wouldn’t you need two as it’s di-lithium? Or if you cut it in half wrong it may be an ion drive?

I wonder what they got for them? Did they trade them for a keg of Guinness? Could Guinness power the engine of a starship?

Isn't a better question to ask is does synthahol lack the bite of alcohol?

Did he get the chance? Didn’t he have some type of brandy from ten forward in TNG that Jean-luc had obtained in questionable circumstances?
