What is this weird plane?

Question

Can anyone identify the make and model of this aircraft? I'm just really curious.

From what I can tell, it's a Burt Rutan design. I then searched and it appears to be a Rutan Defiant.

$\begingroup$ No, Starship is twin pusher, but it's also a Rutan Design. $\endgroup$ – slookabill Oct 29 '14 at 15:14
