Kamino is a world in the fictitional Star Wars universe. It was here that the Clone Army for the Republic was generated. It is inhabited by a race of tall, elegant creatures who keep to themselves and are known for their cloning technology. Obi Wan Kenobi was directed here to follow a lead on the whereabouts of the assassin of Padme Amidala's would-be assassin through a single poison dart. During Obi Wan's stay on Kamino, he discovered the source of the Clone Army's genetic code, one Jango Fett and his "son", Boba Fett. Once he was discovered, Jango and Boba narrowly escaped the planet with Obi Wan close behind. Yoda later returned and brought a contingent of these clone warriors to assist in the rescue of Obi Wan, Anakin, Padme, and the Jedi Knights at the end of "Attack of the Clones" to begin the fabled Clone Wars.
