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.
Basically, the same characteristics that the stars in the Milky Way - our own galaxy - have. Aside from the fact that Andromeda is somewhat bigger, the two galaxies are thought by astronomers to be very much alike. When Edwin Hubble studied the Andromeda Galaxy in the early 20th century, he was able to discern within it several "Cephid variable" stars, which proved, among other things, that Andreomeda was a galaxy, like ours. Prior to that time, it was believed that the Milky Way was the only galaxy - the others were "clouds".
