Background information[]
According to Entertainment Weekly (citation needed • edit), initial storyboards for a Flint episode planned for the would-be fifth season of Enterprise - in which Phlox' discovery of his secret is the catalyst for his reluctance to discuss the past with Kirk, Spock, and McCoy a century later – suggested that the Flint Enterprise encountered, who may have been acquainted with Zefram Cochrane and Henry Archer, would have been Abramson.
Apocrypha[]
Star Trek Pocket Books titles have mentioned Abramson as living in the 22nd or 23rd century and claiming fame as a great scientist. In one novel (citation needed • edit), he is associated with Noonien Soong and helps him design plans for the building of a positronic brain.
The novel Uncertain Logic gives his full name as Willem Paul Abramson. The FASA RPG sourcebook The Federation mentions a William E. Abramson but it’s unclear if this is intended to be the same character.
