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.

			The key first appears in a [[List of Deleted Scenes - Miniseries\|deleted scene]] where Commander [[William Adama]] detonates the munitions during the final stages of ''Galactica''<nowiki/>'s decommissioning, thus necessitating the need to rearm at [[Ragnar Anchorage]] when the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]] occurs {{TRS\|Miniseries}}.

[[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.
