Water vapor is indicative of liquid surface water, which is necessary but not sufficient for life as we know it.

For years, researchers have known that the harmless change, known as a fat bloom, is caused by liquid fat such as cocoa butter migrating through the chocolate and crystalizing on the candy's surface.

When they added a few small drops of sunflower oil to the powder samples, they observed the liquid fat moving through pores and tiny spaces in the chocolate very quickly, most likely as a result of capillary action — the movement of a liquid within porous material due to the forces of adhesion, cohesion, and surface tension.

About three minutes after the probe landed, it picked up a tendril of methane wafting from the surface, as if the probe's heat were boiling some of the liquid trapped just below.
