They showed the shuttle launch on the big screen then a few seconds later you see a line of exhaust forming high in the sky. Hopefully I'm remembering this correctly! :)

Actually, it was the launch of the 2001 Mars Odyssey mission that was shown during the 2001 Championship on the Einstein screen. It was a great view from the stands - you could watch the live video being piped in on NASA TV of the launch, then look over to the east and see the launch streak as the Delta II rocket ascended.

Maybe if we ever end up with Championships back at Disney, a lot more people will be able to see things like that.
