Planets, poetically crossword clue

31 Across · WSJ Crossword, June 24, 2026 · 4 letters

Answer
ORBS
ORBS (4 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Planets, poetically” is ORBS. It appears as 31 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of June 24, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Digital Divide” by Bharati Hemmady & Jeff Chen, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 7, column 12 of the 15×15 grid.

The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with O and ends with S, and contains 1 vowel and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
