He wanted to disprove abiogenesis, where living things spontaneously come from non living material. He proved that if you take dead fish and put them in jars - one sealed and the other not - then maggots will only appear in the fish that's in the unsealed jar. Back in his day it was believed that a "recipe" for creating maggots ex nihilo was to have dead meat, from which they would form, and other odd beliefs like that.
Abiogenesis was effectively disproved by Louis Pasteur.
