Aromatic molecules such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are known to exist in the interstellar medium owing to their characteristic infrared emission features.

After being ground up into a fine powder, the substance produced infrared emissions (phospholescence) with a wavelength of 900 nm.

This then turns the humidity of air into tiny droplets of water because more energy — as can be measured through infrared emissions — is sent to the atmosphere than received by it.
