Munitions Key

September 20, 2008 · Print This Article

In the Miniseries, a scene that is later deleted has Commander Adama destroying Galactica’s munitions as part of the decommissioning ceremony. When shot, Adama uses the munitions key in the Weapons Room (off the CIC) to remotely detonate the munitions.

However, it would not be until Season 3’s “The Eye of Jupiter” until this prop sees the light of day, as Adama opens the munitions key storage box and removes the key before arming the nuclear weapons, themselves aimed at the algae planet.

Here are the contents that are inside that box. Note that while the munitions key and the FTL key look similar, the FTL key is one piece without any glowing lights. And no, when you go to bid on the prop, just remember that it won’t arm any nukes. Sorry.
