Has NASA confirmed that a planetary body on a elliptical orbit on the edge of your solar system?

Seeing as how this was written before December 21, 2012, and is probably a reference to the so-called 'Nibiru Cataclysm' involving a massive rogue planet, I can tell you in 2015 that this is not the case. While there are dwarf planets (such as Sedna) orbiting the sun on extremely eccentric paths, there is no gas giant threatening to obliterate Earth. However, as of January 2015, scientists at the Computense University of Madrid claim to have found evidence for two Earth-sized or bigger planets lurking deep in the outer solar system, but the claim at the time of this writing is so new that there is little input from other scientists or corroborative testing by other reputable establishments to give credence to this report.
