This drives an expanding and fast-moving shock wave into the surrounding interstellar medium, and in turn, sweeping up an expanding shell of gas and dust, which is observed as a supernova remnant. Supernovae create, fuse and eject the bulk of the chemical elements produced by nucleosynthesis.
Quick Answer. Wisconsin hunter James Jordan shot the largest typical whitetail buck in the United States in 1914, and a Missouri hunter found the largest non-typical whitetail buck already dead in 1981. The typical buck scored 206 1/8 on the Boone and Crockett scale, and the non-typical buck scored 333 7/8. Continue Reading.
