It was destroyed in the greatest act of violence the galaxy has ever known — by the Death Star at the height of its power.
[ bodhi must be behind she and luke in the timeline. with lando ahead of them all. ]
All that remains is the Alderaanians who were elsewhere at the time of the attack and a few asteroids of the Alderaanian system, abandoned as the Galactic Empire hunts for survivors.
