Popis:	The two main components of the closest star system, {\alpha}-Centauri AB(RA 14h39m, Dec-60o50', J2000.0) is indubitbaly one of the most studied visual double stars. This paper presents the results of our recalculation of orbital and physical parameters of the system using Thiele-van den Bos method, based on observational data from year 1900 to 2002. Despite some significant discrepancies, in general our results confirmed previous results of orbital parameter determinations using different method.
