Minecraft had a 'soft launch' (started as an alpha/beta) some time around 2006, I believe
Alpha was an earlier version on minecraft beta, it has poorer graphics, less blocks and far fewer crafting recipes.
You need an a jar from alpha stages, which you can get with Minecraft Nostalgia.

Minecraft is no longer in the Alpha stage. It has been updated to Minecraft Beta. Update your Minecraft game client.

No. The full version of Minecraft will come out after Beta 1.9. Most games have their alpha stages then their beta stages and then the full version comes out.
