A program is planned at the new ISAC accelerated radioactive beams facility at TRIUMF to study key radiative capture reactions important for explosive nuclear astrophysics events involving radioactive reactants. The ISAC facility will produce by 2000 a wide range of exotic beams with energies from 0.15 to 1.5 MeV/u and with projected intensities sufficient to perform such studies. These reactions will be studied using inverse kinematics with an extended gas target coupled to two-stage recoil mass separator to differentiate the desired product from the more intense beam. This combination with a gamma array around the target, providing a coincident signal from the prompt reaction gammas, should result in an overall background suppression factor of >= 10^15. A status report of the planned DRAGON facility including final conceptual layout, details of the gas target, review of the recoil detection systems under development, timetable and anticipated experimental program will be presented.
