LISTEN: Lost photos of Challenger disaster

History can sometimes be found in the most unlikely of places: Treasure maps, relics from the Medieval period, one-of-a-kind first editions or even Rembrandts have been found tucked away in attics or old boxes forgotten in storage units.

The latest piece of history to have been discovered took only hours to spread internationally Tuesday night, and just days before the historic event’s 28th anniversary.

Last week, 36-year-old Michael Hindes’ grandmother passed away, and while looking through old boxes for photographs to display at her memorial, the West Springfield, Mass. man tells KTAR he found another set of photos he never expected.

We want to hear from you.
