Are the Aleutian islands inside Arctic Circle?

The Aleutian Islands are a chain of islands that stretches westward from the Alaska Peninsula, across the North Pacific Ocean. The islands are administered by the United States as part of the State of Alaska. The westernmost islands of the Aleutian chain, including Attu Island and Agattu Island, are located west of the 180th meridian west, and therefore lie in the Eastern Hemisphere. The easternmost islands of the chain, including Unalaska Island and Umnak Island, are located east of the 180th meridian west, and therefore lie in the Western Hemisphere.

The Arctic Circle is a latitude line that encircles the Arctic, and is located at 66° 33′ 44″ N. The Aleutian Islands are located south of the Arctic Circle, and therefore are not considered to be part of the Arctic.
