Background
Dried oatmeal was used by Dan Curry as part of the visual effects to create the illusion of the surface of the sun that the IKS Hegh'ta flew into in (TNG). According to Curry, in the TNG Season 5 DVD special features, oatmeal was sprinkled onto a light table and an electric motor was placed on it to make it vibrate to give it a "sizzle". The flat plane of "sizzling" oatmeal was then wrapped in an electronic device over an imaginary, or virtual sphere. After making a negative of the image and tinting it orange, the final product was given look of the cells seen on the surface of the sun.
