Kamino is a stormy water planet, home to skilled cloners, the Kaminoans, that aided the Republic in Episode II: Attack of the Clones. Obi-Wan traveled there searching for a bounty hunter that had connections to assassination attempts on Senator Amidala. What he found was a race of very hospitable life forms that seem to have an order from the Jedi for a very large amount of clones, all spawned from the illustrious Jango Fett. These clones are the predecessors of the Empire's Stormtroopers.
