The main discovery was that it was possible to land a lunar module with 2 men aboard onto the lunar surface. Apollo 11 overshot its intended target by about 4 miles. While that may sound close, it was important to NASA and scientists that they be able to land within a few hundred feet of their intended target. Apollo 12, which landed 4 months after Apollo 11 accomplished that goal.
The rocks returned by Apollo 11 were rich in titanium and lacked any traces of water. They showed small holes from the bombardment of solar wind and microscopic meteors.
