Following the link, the image is called 51-L_Clip_319.jpg.  51-L was the mission on which the Challenger was lost, so, yeah, I would guess it is indeed the nose of a space shuttle.

 

 

I think you're right.
Applying some Google-fu on the term "51-L debris" resulted in several images. Below are just two examples but they are without a doubt the same wreckage.

Salvaged wreckage from Challenger. After the investigation the remains were "buried" in an disused missile silo at KSC. The remains of Columbia and Apollo 1 were buried similarly.
