Binary "discovery"

Discovered something last night ...
went out after dark and had to align the finderscope. Picked out a bright star in the direction I was pointing (just happened to be the further of the two pointers).
What do you know - turns out that star is alpha centari - which also happens to be my first binary!

Can I lay claim to this or has it already been discovered?
