Editing Munitions key

[[File:TRS - Miniseries - FTL Key.jpg|thumb|[[Felix Gaeta]] uses a [[FTL key]] to authorize an [[FTL|FTL jump]] {{TRS|Miniseries, Night 2}}.]]
The '''FTL key''' is a separate electronic activation device that integrates into a [[FTL|FTL control]] console, used to authorize the activation of a [[Propulsion in the Re-imagined Series|faster-than light drive]] aboard a starship. The key comprises a metal handle with two lit rods that enter into a FTL console's "key slot," which is used to manually turn the slot as one would a key tumbler with a properly cut key.

While an integral part of [[Galactica type battlestar|battlestar]] ''[[Galactica (TRS)|Galactica]]''<nowiki/>'s operations process to execute a [[jump]] {{TRS|Miniseries, Night 2|Scattered|Blood on the Scales|Daybreak, Part II}}, a physical FTL key does not appear to be in use aboard newer ships, including ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' or [[Raptor]] craft. For most civilian ships within [[The Fleet (TRS)]], a separate [[launch key]] is used to authorize ship operations including, but not limited to, FTL control {{TRS|Precipice|Exodus, Part I}}.

''[[Demetrius]]'', an older craft, also uses a physical FTL key to authorize jumps {{TRS|The Road Less Traveled}}.

-The '''munitions key''' is a separate electronic activation device that integrates into the Weapons Control Room's munitions console of [[CIC]], used to authorize the activation of nuclear ordnance on a military vessel. The key comprises a metal handle with two metal rods that enter into the console's "key slot," which is used to manually turn the slot as one would a key tumbler with a properly cut key; it is mostly akin to the [[FTL key]] in its construction, save the absence of the lit rods.
