Is there a way to change the center of rotation for manipulating the model with a spaceball.

I am modeling a part in air craft space at say 20" in x, 525" in y and 140" in z from the defualt 0,0,0 rotation center of the part and its very difficult to rotate/translate the model with the spaceball and not loose my part as it flys off the screen.
