  This seems to me to be more of a circular argument in your particular
case or instance.  Listing both would be fine, but not listing both
as you primary affiliation...  This was my answer and point to your
original consideration...

  I think, and perhaps I am incorrect, that you are concerned
about COI in your particular instance/case so you would therefore
choose to list both.  But listing both as primary affiliation would
be more of a COI concern than listing both BNN and NASA with
BNN being your primary affiliation.
