The isotope ^22Na (T_1/2 2.6 years) in nova ejecta may serve as an important target for gamma-ray astronomy with orbiting telescopes. The ^21Na(p,γ)^22Mg reaction, in turn, is a key link in the production of ^22Na in nova nucleosynthesis. We present recent results from a measurement of the ^21Na(p,γ)^22Mg reaction rate, using radioactive ^21Na beams from ISAC and the DRAGON recoil separator. We also discuss future plans to measure with DRAGON other reactions of importance to stellar explosions, such as ^13N(p,γ)^14O, ^19Ne(p,γ)^20Na, and ^25Al(p,γ)^26Si, among others.
