Dew inside lens?

Hi all!

I've taken out my gear for inspection before an excursion tomorrow night.

Only to find my Meade Series 5000 SWA 24 mm has this strange "rot" covering 1/4 the surface INSIDE the lens' surface.

The lens was stored in a pouch, with both lens caps on, inside a sealed briefcase, ever since I used it a year and a half ago.

Any ideas what could have gone wrong and how to avoid that happening to my other lenses?

I'm quite a noob at this, so any advice will be much appreciated.
