three-globe.module.js:279 yields this error while switching to another page after having displayed the homepage.

The workaround is to check if the object is defined but the module shouldn't require a patch.

var emptyObject = function emptyObject(obj) {
  if (obj) {
    while (obj.children.length) {
      var childObj = obj.children[0];
      obj.remove(childObj);
      deallocate(childObj);
    }
  }
};
