I had no idea that was "The Picard Maneuver". I always assumed it was something like a bad ass evasive spaceship maneuver like in Top Gun where Mavericks like "we're gonna hit the brakes and they'll fly right by."

The "Picard Maneuver", (TNG, Season

Spoiler1, Episode 9
)
Spoileris a short warp jump that causes the enemy vessel's light-speed limited sensors to detect your ship in 2 positions at once.
However Picard tucking his shirt away like that also got the nickname "Picard Maneuver", because funny ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Edit: Sry, I am to dumb to use spoiler correctly
