He applied the period-luminosity relation to Cepheid variables.
There is no galaxy called the Hubble Galaxy
Prior to Hubble's discovery scientists generally believed that our galaxy was the entire universe. Hubble found that the Andromeda galaxy was, then called the Andromeda Nebula, was not a part of our galaxy but a galaxy unto itself far beyond the edge of the Milky Way. This discovered demonstrated that the universe is much larger than scientists have believed.
The Hubble telescope looked deep into space and discovered the Galaxy field. When then realised that it is obvious we are not alone.
This has been answered before but here it is again. The Hubble telescope with the light-collecting power of the W. M. Keck Telescopes can see 13 billion light years away based on the furthest detected galaxy to date. In comparison looking up into the sky on a very clear night, the Triangulum Galaxy can sometimes be seen by the naked eye. This is a distance of 3.14 million light years. The Andromeda Galaxy is also sometimes visible. This is a distance of 2.5 million light years.

There is no galaxy called the Hubble Galaxy
He discovered that the farther away a galaxy was, the faster it was moving away from Earth.
The farther away a galaxy, the faster it will go away from us. Check the Wikipedia article on "Hubble's Law" for more details. According to the article, the currently accepted value for the "Hubble constant" is 74.2 ± 3.6 (km/s)/Mpc. That is to say, if a galaxy is at a distance of 1 Megaparsec, on average our distance from this galaxy will increase at a rate of about 74 km/s. For a galaxy at 2 Megaparsec distance, the speed would increase at twice this value, etc.

According to Hubble's Law, the farther away a galaxy is the, faster it is moving away
v = H0D Where v is the velocity at which a galaxy moves away from us, and D is its distance. With H0 being the constant of proportionality (the Hubble constant) between the distance D to a galaxy and its velocity v.
Hubble's Law states that (more or less) the distance to a galaxy is a constant multiple of the distance to that galaxy. For example, if one galaxy is moving away from us at three times the speed of another galaxy, then that means it is also three times as far away. The Law indicates that the Universe is expanding and had a beginning. Before Hubble's Law, many astronomers thought that the Universe did not have a beginning (it always existed).
Hubble's equation states that the velocity at which various galaxies are receding from the Earth is proportional to their distance from us.The law is often expressed by the equation v = H0D, with H0 the constant of proportionality (the Hubble constant) between the distance D to a galaxy and its velocity v. The SI unit of H0 is s-1 but it is most frequently quoted in (km/s)/Mpc, thus giving the speed in km/s of a galaxy one Megaparsec away. The reciprocal of H0 is the Hubble time.
