Amber was the fossil resin of an extinct coniferous tree found in ancient deposits on Earth. Occasionally, this resin will hold the fossilized remains of an insect.

In early 2365, in his starlog, Captain Jean-Luc Picard of the USS Enterprise-D described his situation in the void as being "... like a fly in amber trapped." (TNG: "Where Silence Has Lease")
