In 8.5, you can go to View -> Preferences -> Visualization -> view/screen and turn off the "display center of rotation" option. NX 9 is slightly different, I think you have to go to File -> all preferences; from there you should be able to find the visualization preferences.
cowski is correct that this indicator can be disabled (turned off), however, by definition, it can't be moved since at any one time, there's only a single 'Center of Rotation' and having it anywhere else than AT the 'Center of Rotation' would be silly.
