Hmm, planet destroyed...?

You wouldn't see the warning if you recently acquired the planet and if the warning had already happened before you got it. For example, if the planet belonged to another player, they got the warning and then they traded or gifted the planet to you, or you took it over with troops or intel.

Or maybe an enemy ship equipped with a Tectonic Bomb blew up the planet. Like Jack said, maybe the enemy ship was cloaked.

I did a quick test. The planet destroyed announcement includes the race that did it. Even if the ship is cloaked, it must decloak to destroy the planet, anyway. Have you been in control of this planet the entire time it was colonized, like Kamog said you may have missed the message.

[EDIT]
Quick recheck...if you haven't made contact yet, you make contact when you decloak.
