Alaska is the westernmost U.S. state. Most of Alaska is in the Western Hemisphere. Hawaii is in the Eastern Hemisphere. The Aleutian Islands are part of Alaska. The 180th meridian (the International Date Line) crosses the Aleutian Islands making Alaska the westernmost U.S. state in the Western Hemisphere. Part of Alaska's Aleutian Islands are on the other side of the 180th meridian (the International Date Line). Therefore that part of Alaska is in the Eastern Hemisphere and makes Alaska also the easternmost U.S. state.
