When an alien with essence cards is Cosmic Zapped, do its essence cards go back to the unavailable pile?

No. A Cosmic Zap is temporary, so the alien sheet stays face up and its essence cards stay in place. Essence cards return only when the alien is permanently lost, such as losing three or more home colonies or using Reincarnator.
