Many naturally occurring phenomena approximate a normal distribution.

Supply photographs and images for articles listed in Category:Wikipedia requested photographs of science
Integrate relatively new scientific knowledge and findings (major studies reported on by RS) into relevant articles
You can also go through this list of items that were nearly/not included in the last Year in science article to find studies to integrate elsewhere (many of these contain notable info, you can filter them by field and many rows have a likely relevant article already wikilinked in the last column)
Complete requests of other editors on the talk pages of science-related articles (examples)
Expand 2026 in science and/or other articles for science-related topics of the year (in the box on the right)
Create new articles for items of this article, mostly articles relating to new scientific fields/topics/findings (the page does not use redlinks anymore but you will quickly identify possible new articles when reading it; here you can find a version with over 60 redlinked examples)
Some of the lists' items have not yet been integrated into their wikilinked articles; if you add a study there it should also be relevant to at least one other article
Maybe this could be done as part of an organized effort
Find studies published under a compatible open license (like CC BY 4.0) and upload the studies' images with descriptions from the study and add these images to articles if they are relevant and useful there
When a study with a useful image is published under an incompatible or unclear license (or the image is published not in a study but elsewhere), you could contact its authors (Twitter/Mail) and ask them to give you the permission to upload them under CC BY 4.0 (or whether they could upload the image/s under a compatible license)
You can also think about whether images would be useful as you read a science-related article and then search for such images:
if they already exist add them (if already on WMCommons) or upload them (if the license is ok) or ask their authors for permissions
