Star Wars Explained | Where was Mon Mothma During the Battle of Yavin? #starwars @StarWarsExplained | Uploaded August 2024 | Updated October 2024, 6 days ago.
Where was Mon Mothma during the Death Star’s attack on Yavin 4? The last time we saw her in Rogue One she was at the Rebel base. The simple and confirmed answer is that she evacuated almost immediately after hearing that Princess Leia was on her way with the stolen Death Star plans. She didn’t want to evacuate, but General Jan Dodonna insisted it was necessary. In the likely event their attack on the superweapon failed, she alone would be able to restart the rebellion against the Empire. So she was taken away from Yavin 4, and during the assault she considered several possible futures for the Alliance, and none of them were hopeful. But against all odds the Death Star was destroyed and she rejoined the rebels shortly after.
