That is impressive. I wonder how it would look like if you would show all stuff flying up there! Would it be like earth has a messy bad hair day?

It is quite busy up there. In some way you would expect there are regular collisions of satellites, but I don’t remember I have ever heard of any.

This is all the stuff launched by Ariane rockets, or is it related to a single space program?

Thanks for the question! These are all Ariane leftover rocket parts, related to various launches. The leftover parts are mostly booster stages to transfer a sats to GEO orbit.
