Alaska is both the northernmost and the easternmost state in the US. The Aleutian Islands are part of Alaska. Attu is the westernmost island in the Aleutian Islands of Alaska. The 180th meridian (the International Date Line) crosses the Aleutian Islands. Attu is on the opposite side of the 180° longitude line and is in the Eastern Hemisphere. Therefore Attu is the easternmost area in the U.S.
