DESCRIPTION:The Epoch of Reionisation (EoR) is one of the most mysterious 
 epochs in our\nuniverses history. It stands as one of the main hurdles in\
 nconstraining the parameters of the Lambda-CDM model further. It is\ncurre
 ntly one of the biggest research frontiers in Astrophysics and\nRadio Astr
 onomy.  I will first explain the motivations for exploring\nthe EoR\, and 
 an overview of using the 21-cm hydrogen spectral line. I\nwill discuss cur
 rent experimental efforts\, and the\nenormous difficulties that face radio
  astronomers in trying to detect\nthe highly redshifted 21-cm spectral lin
 e. Tentative results and\ncurrent progress is discussed\, as well as a loo
 k towards the future\nin this growing area of cosmology and astronomy.
