I just keep thinking about this short film[0] that explores the views you can see with rotational artificial gravity, and how nauseating it could be :)

Just point the axis at the major body of interest, Earth, moon, Jupiter, etc., and it would slowly rotate in a stationary position, instead of spinning around you.

Or align the axis with the major light source if that is different, like the sun for inner solar system locations, and at least the lighting won't keep moving around.

Not much different from watching scenery go by in a vehicle then.
