Interestingly, the mass of a supermassive black hole is generally roughly proportional to the central bulge of the galaxy around it.

Astronomers are not sure why it happens, since a galaxy has much more mass than its supermassive black hole, by about 10 orders of magnitude; but the proportionality suggests that supermassive black holes and their galaxies evolve together, rather than forming separately and coming together later.

This makes it the earliest black hole wind identified to date, extending the record by 100 million years, suggesting that feedback emerged relatively early in the history of the Universe.

Measurements showed that the supermassive black hole clocks in at around 330 million times the mass of the Sun.

This suggests that the coevolution of supermassive black holes and their host galaxies has also been occurring since at least a few hundred million years after the Big Bang.
