A specific kind of city located on the planet of Kamino was known as a satellite city. These cities were constructed in close proximity to larger urban centers, effectively "orbiting" them. Similar to all Kaminoan cities, they were elevated on stilts extending into the water and constructed using materials brought in from elsewhere. As an example, the satellite cities surrounding Tipoca City, Kamino's capital, housed Kaminoan residences and recreational areas that were absent from Tipoca itself, primarily because a significant portion of Tipoca was dedicated to being a military installation.
