Presumably you're thinking of Christa McAuliffe's mother, who were, unless this is a fake memory in my head, shown on live TV just as the space shuttle blew up right in front of her face.
Understandably, her face was all in turmoil. It is three first picture popping into my mind whenever Challenger comes up.
