Abstract	We recently obtained a Chandra observation of the shell-type radio supernovaremnant G12.82-0.02 coincident with a HESS TeV gamma-ray source. The data revealan X-ray point source surrounded by a bright nebula at the center of the remnantshell. The properties of this system lead to only one possible conclusion: ayoung (<20kyr), highly energetic (>4E36 erg/s) pulsar powering a substantialwind nebula associated with the supernova remnant. An XMM observation would havean excellent chance of detecting the expected pulsations, critical fordetermining the energetics of the system and resolving the nature of theobserved TeV emission.

Mission Description	The European Space Agencys (ESA) X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission (XMM-Newton) was launched by an Ariane 504 on December 10th 1999. XMM-Newton is ESAs second cornerstone of the Horizon 2000 Science Programme. It carries 3 high throughput X-ray telescopes with an unprecedented effective area, and an optical monitor, the first flown on a X-ray observatory. The large collecting area and ability to make long uninterrupted exposures provide highly sensitive observations. Since Earths atmosphere blocks out all X-rays, only a telescope in space can detect and study celestial X-ray sources. The XMM-Newton mission is helping scientists to solve a number of cosmic mysteries, ranging from the enigmatic black holes to the origins of the Universe itself. Observing time on XMM-Newton is being made available to the scientific community, applying for observational periods on a competitive basis.
