In prism $JHOPKINS$, quadrilaterals $JHOP$ and $KINS$ are parallel and congruent bases that are kites, where $JH = JP = KI = KS$ and $OH = OP = NI = NS$; the longer two sides of each kite have length $\tfrac{4 + \sqrt{5}}{2}$, and the shorter two sides of each kite have length $\tfrac{5 + \sqrt{5}}{4}$. Assume that $\overline{JK}$, $\overline{HI}$, $\overline{ON}$, and $\overline{PS}$ are congruent edges of $JHOPKINS$ perpendicular to the planes containing $JHOP$ and $KINS$. Vertex $J$ is part of a regular pentagon $JAZZ'Y$ that can be inscribed in prism $JHOPKINS$ such that $A \in \overline{HI}$, $Z \in \overline{NI}$, $Z' \in \overline{NS}$, $Y \in \overline{PS}$, $AI = YS$, and $ZI = Z'S$. Compute the height of $JHOPKINS$ (that is, the distance between the bases).
