Should we just give up? Continuing the search for the First Stars



The Epoch of Reionization (EoR) follows the end of the Dark Ages of the Universe and signals the birth of the first stars. The aim of the current generation of radio telescopes is to make the first statistical detection of this epoch, covering 400 million - 1 billion years after the Big Bang. For the next generation Square Kilometre array, we will have an order of magnitude improved sensitivity and can pursue imaging over this time. However, foregrounds cover the cosmological data by several orders of magnitude, and their removal remains a significant challenge. It has been over a decade since we turned on the current generation telescope LOFAR, and still there is no detection… should we just give up?
