I found this great site that talks about what was going on in 1986 which I really think will help with researching the year. We can look at what movies were popular, who was in office, and other dominating ideas of the time, etc.
US President: Ronald Reagan
Events: -The Challenger Space Shuttle explodes after launch killing all seven on board
-Supreme Court reafirms abortion rights
Economics: -US GDP (1998 dollars): $4,422.20 billion
-Federal spending: $990.34 billion
-Federal debt: $2120.6 billion
-Median Household Income(current dollars): $24,897
-Consumer Price Index: 109.6
