I would though, it would be an incredible view. But only in at least as much safety as in a car.
The monkey's paw curls. You find yourself in the passenger seat of a luxurious, self-driving car, driving up into the sky with the moon directly in front of you. A speed limit sign flies past; "55 mph"
That's a year's round trip :D
Pretty much everyone who has been to space claims its one of the most transformative perspective changing things they have done.
Just wait until it gets filled with tourists.
Nothing quite spoils even the most awe-inpiring experience than being surrounded by people who "just have to" vocalize (worse, as some kind of performance for those around them) how much awe inspiring the whole thing is.
Mind you, I'm an introvert, so maybe it's just me having trouble appreciating socially performative "awe".
