And for those who didn't know this already, Alaska is the easternmost,
as well as the northernmost of the 50 United States.

and westernmost, of course.

But easternmost only on a technicality. The last few Aleutian Islands
are on the other side of the 180th meridian, and as such are in the
eastern hemisphere. If you don't want to count them, then the
easternmost state would be Maine.
