A three-axis, non-scanning, self-referenced laser air data sensing system comprises a support having three separate laser diodes providing beams of coherent light, which beams are directed toward separate beam expander mirrors. The expander mirrors reflect an expanding beam back toward a focusing mirror that focuses the beams along three diverging axes at known angles to each other at three separate locations in space. The focused beams form small detection cell regions through which particles in the fluid pass and reflect light. The reflected light is received back along the same paths as the transmission of the source light, and is directed back toward detectors on the base. The reflected light undergoes a Doppler shift, and this reflected light is combined with a reference signal tapped from one of the other of the three coherent light sources for heterodyning the signals for determining the Doppler shift and thus the relative velocity.
