A primeira página do meu documento está boa, mas por algum motivo a segunda página está cheia de espaços aleatórios entre o texto e as figuras.
Olhei em volta para ver se conseguia resolver o problema, mas nada funcionou. Sinceramente, não tenho ideia do que deu errado.

\subsection*{Data collection}
To measure the resistance of each generation we attached a multimeter across the gasket, using crocodile clips and circuit leads, from one corner of the triangle to another. This gave three values of resistance for each generation. The measured resistances were noted down into small tables for each generations. A summary table was then created to, make it easier to read the data, generalising a notation that the top point of the gasket as A, the bottom left as B and the bottom right as C. The table also included the theoretical resistance, $R_T$, the mean resistance, $R_{mean}$, and the number of resistors from A to B, which would all be needed later for the plotting of a graph.

O código não inclui o texto e as figuras da primeira página.
Resolvi o problema movendo todo o texto para um grande parágrafo à esquerda da página e colocando as imagens à direita. Em seguida, reduzi o tamanho das imagens para que todas cabessem em uma página.

Eu faria as seguintes alterações
- substitua a opção
[H]
por[htb]
conforme sugerido nos comentários acima - substitua
\begin<{center} ... \end{center}
por\centering
(veja MWE abaixo) - remova tudo
\noindent{...}
e, em vez disso, seu uso no preâmbulo defina\setlength\parindent{0pt}
subfigure
em vez de usar pacotes obsoletossubfig
- mova
hyperref
o pacote no final do preâmbulo.
Após essas alterações, obtenho:
